Luckily for the Denver Nuggets, they won’t have much time to dwell on Sunday’s streak-ending loss to the Boston Celtics.
A game that started off with such promise saw Boston close on a 40-8 run to secure a 105-87 victory. Although Nikola Jokiu0107 had yet another triple-double (17 points, 11 assists, and 10 rebounds), Denver struggled offensively, scoring a season-low 87 points on 36.4 percent shooting from the field.
