The Denver Nuggets entered Wednesday night’s game against the Spurs looking for redemption in more than one form. They were hoping to bounce back after suffering their worst defeat of the season at the hands of the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday, and looking for their first win in San Antonio since March of 2012. They came up empty as the Spurs handed them a 111-103 loss—their 12th straight defeat in the AT&T center.
With three starters out, the Nuggets were in need of a strong performance from their two stars, Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic—the latter being the most important player on the floor in this game.
