The Denver Nuggets came into tonight looking to do something that hadn’t been done in nearly a decade: win the Northwest Division. With the Portland Trail Blazers in town a victory secured the title for the Nuggets. After a back and forth affair the Nuggets emerged victorious through the play of Nikola Jokic and Paul Millsap. The Nuggets limited the damage by Blazers superstar Damian Lillard and got twenty plus point efforts from three starters on the way to a 199-110 win.
Enes Kanter opened the game working inside on Jokic and found some early success but Jokic was able to match the effort on the other end.
