10. Denver Nuggets (32-26)
The Denver Nuggets are desperately trying to make their way back to the playoffs after missing the postseason over the last few years. At the NBA All-Star break, the Nuggets are still in the Western Conference playoff picture, but just barely.
The good news for the Nuggets is that Paul Millsap is expected back soon. He will likely be back by or in early March.
As long as Denver can continue to hold off the likes of the LA Clippers and red-hot Utah Jazz for a few more weeks, they should be in good position for a playoff spot.
