Nuggets Get Big Win in Home Opener

In the Denver Nuggets 2017-2018 home opener, the Nuggets set out to impress the legends that sat inside of the Pepsi Center.

The Nuggets started with a lineup of Jamal Murray, Gary Harris, Wilson Chandler, Paul Milsap, and Nikola Jokic. The Nuggets lost the jump and the Kings were the first ones up on the board as Justin Jackson sank a 3-footer. Following Jackson’s three, Gary Harris was able to make an alley oop with an assist from Nikola Jokic.

Within the last five of the first quarter, the Nuggets started to lose speed and that showed with multiple turnovers.
