Denver had lost four of their last five at home, but they got back on the right track tonight. Nikola Jokic came out with some intensity early and often. He scored 35 points, 12 rebounds, 8 assists, and 2 blocks. Denver held a significant lead for much of the contest, but OKC’s second-half surge created another close game between these two teams. The Nuggets tie the season series with the Thunder at 2-2, but more importantly with this win, they move a game ahead of Minnesota and a game and a half back on 4th place.
