Nuggets vs. Raptors Summer League takeaways: Denver can’t handle ball pressure in loss to Toronto

The Nuggets fell to 0-3 at NBA Summer League on Tuesday with a 101-97 loss to the Toronto Raptors with Hunter Tyson given the night off.

Spencer Jones got hot from 3-point range in the waning minutes to lead a dramatic near-comeback from down double digits, but after the Nuggets got within one point with 14 seconds left, they committed a costly foul away from the ball as Toronto was trying to inbound it. That resulted in an extra free throw for the Raptors, who iced the game at the line.
