The Denver Nuggets are 9-2, second-best in the West behind the Thunder, after their 130-116 win over the Clippers on Wednesday behind Nikola Jokiu0107's 55 points. Aaron Gordon contributed 18 points, and Murray had 15. Denver's two other starters, Cam Johnson and Christian Braun, combined for only eight points, and neither played after halftime due to injuries.
Johnson hurt his arm in the first quarter while going up for a rebound against Ivica Zubac, which the Nuggets referred to as a right arm sprain. He exited the game with two points and three rebounds in eight minutes.
Injury aside (the severity is still unknown), Johnson hasn't shot the ball nearly as well as fans thought he would.
