The eruptions exploded for seismic swats and audacious 3-pointers, but no Nugget elicited more of an outburst from the crowd Friday night than DeAndre Jordan.
When he dialed up a 27-foot 3-pointer late in the third quarter, all of Ball Arena acted like they’d seen a shooting star. Or maybe it was a blue arrow – like the kind Jordan launched amid his stunning 3-point celebration. The Nuggets avenged their season-opening loss to Utah with a resounding 117-101 win, improving to 4-2 on the year.
They’ll visit the Lakers on Sunday carrying wins in four of their last five games.
