The San Antonio Spurs hit the road for the first time this season as they travel to the great state of Colorado for a date with the Denver Nuggets. And while they tossed around the bottom-dwelling Orlando Magic like a ragdoll in one of the most memorable season-openers in franchise history earlier this week, head coach Mike Malone and company will probably put up a mightier fight.
Nikola Jokic was in MVP form when the Nuggets dispatched last year’s Western Conference Champions to ring in the season. And the Serbian center is all-too-familiar with giving the Silver and Black the business throughout his already decorated career.
