Keys to the Game: Bulls vs Nuggets (03.21.18)

Tonight the Denver Nuggets visit the United Center for the only time as the hometown Chicago Bulls look to bounce back after dropping two in a row, and three of their last four games.

The Bulls visited Denver back on November 30th and lost a 111-110 heartbreaker. Nuggets super-sub Will Barton proved to be a difference maker as he capped a career night (37 points) with a driving layup with 3.2 seconds left to play to win the game.

Denver was forced to take the floor that night without key players Paul Millsap (wrist surgery) and Wilson Chandler (back spasms), and then had to overcome the loss of star center Nikola Jokic, who badly sprained an ankle with only 44 seconds left in the opening half and couldn't return.
