Back to EpisodesNuggets Edge Jazz in Thriller
Description
The Denver Nuggets narrowly defeated the Utah Jazz 135-129, but the game was far from easy. Nikola Jokic had a triple-double with 33 points, 15 rebounds, and 12 assists, but also had 7 turnovers and struggled defensively. Jamal Murray broke the teams single-season record for three-pointers made, scoring 31 points, 14 assists, and 6 rebounds. Utahs young players kept it close, with Kyle Filipowski scoring 28 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists, and Cody Williams adding 24 points and 7 assists. The Jazz dominated in the paint, scoring a season-high 84 points. The Nuggets defense was exposed, and they had to rely on clutch shots to win. Tim Hardaway Jr scored 21 points off the bench, and Aaron Gordon had 17 points with 7 rebounds and highlight dunks. The Nuggets have two games this week to shake off the rust and improve their defense before the playoffs.
