The Nuggets were back in action on Monday night, taking on the Raptors in Vancouver as part of the NBA Canada Series. This was their second preseason game, and it looked more like an actual NBA game, especially for the first three quarters. The Nuggets ultimately pulled out the win 112-108, but it’s more about the process and less about the end result.
The process was solid in this one, and it was fascinating to watch Nikola Jokic, especially. All of these new pieces in town are essentially there for him, and it’s all about how the puzzle fits around him.
