A win is a win.
That’s all that matters for the Denver Nuggets, who used a fourth-quarter comeback to secure a 103-100 victory over the LA Clippers Sunday night. Despite owning a 17-point lead in the third quarter, Denver had to grind out the win on defense, which went down to the buzzer with a key stop from Davon Reed.
Just one point separated the two teams after the opening six minutes of action, as LA secured a 16-15 lead at the first timeout. The Clippers maintained and built the lead throughout the quarter as Denver’s offense struggled to make shots.
