The Nuggets’ season is still brand new, but they are already setting a new standard, as they became the first team in league history to score 120+ points and shoot 50% or better from the field in all four games to start a season.
Denver lost on opening night to the Warriors in overtime, but their offense certainly wasn’t the issue as they put up 131 points with Nikola Jokic recording a triple-double and Aaron Gordon dropping 50 points on 10 threes.
But since then, the Nuggets have won three straight games, each with an offensive outburst.
