After 134 days, the NBA's Opening Night was one to remember, with two of the biggest Western Conference duels kicking the new season off.

The Denver Nuggets started off the 2023-24 season with a convincing win over the Los Angeles Lakers, thanks to strong performances from Nikola Jokić and their cohesive bench unit.
The Lakers struggled when LeBron James and Anthony Davis were off the court, and their second unit looked sluggish and uncoordinated.
In the matchup between the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors, the Suns came out on top with an impressive win despite missing Bradley Beal. Devin Booker and Josh Okogie were standout players for the Suns, while Stephen Curry had an off-night shooting for the Warriors.
