The Nuggets got some reinforcements and bounced back to winning ways with a 117-112 victory over the Hornets in Charlotte.
Denver saw the long-awaited return of Monte Morris, who had been sidelined with a hamstring injury for 12 games. Aaron Gordon also got back in the fold after he missed the Nuggets’ last game against Brooklyn. The two men would provide a much-needed boost for the still injury-depleted Nuggets, who are missing Jamal Murray, Will Barton III, and PJ Dozier.
Nikola Jokiu0107 and Michael Porter Jr.’s chemistry continues to grow exponentially over the past month as the pair combined for 60 points to lead the Nuggets in the win.
