The Denver Nuggets had been struggling offensively but then the Portland Trail Blazers came to town. Unfortunately for the Blazers, they were without four of their top scorers but it set up Denver nicely for a get-right type of game. Denver started the scoring with aggressive activity inside but as the game continued, they found their stroke from deep. They knocked down 21 threes on 42 attempts and shot 62.7% overall from the floor. All 11 available players scored tonight and only Gordon and Uncle Jeff did not record a three.
The Nuggets set a season-high for points and three-pointers made tonight.
