The Nuggets answered a losing skid with a strong offensive performance and resilient fourth quarter.
A 127-115 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night was punctuated with bevy of buckets at Ball Arena. Denver shot 54% from the floor as a team — including 50% from 3-point range (16 of 32) — with reigning MVP Nikola Jokic nabbing an easy double-double: 30 points and 14 rebounds.
The Nuggets (43-30) are back in the win column after losing two straight games and four of their previous six. Denver is clinging to the No. 6 playoff seed in the Western Conference with only nine games left in the regular season.
