Nuggets’ defense holds up vs. Thunder as Denver wins third in a row

OKLAHOMA CITY — Torrey Craig had done everything and more in his spot start for the injured Gary Harris, but one more second chance bucket wouldn’t hurt.

He corralled one more miss with just over a minute left, dropped it in and officially curbed the Thunder’s fourth-quarter run. The Nuggets, who improved to 13-7 on the year, won 105-98 for their third win in a row. The Thunder entered Saturday having won 12 of their last 14 games.

With Harris out due to an ankle injury, Craig was phenomenal on both ends of the floor.
