The four-game winning streak of the Portland Trail Blazers came to a screeching halt on Tuesday night, as they were dismantled by the Denver Nuggets in a 127-99 shellacking. The loss marks the first time the team has been held under 100 points in over a month. Nikola Jokic had a near triple-double to lead the Nuggets, who shot over 50% from three-point range as a team. Damian Lillard finally cooled off from his torrid stretch, but still led the Blazers with 21 points on the night.
To top-off an already rough night, rookie Nassir Little suffered an ankle injury in the final minute of the game and had to be helped off the court.
