The Denver Nuggets and San Antonio Spurs started their game with slow offense by both sides. Near the middle of the first quarter, the Spurs started to go on a run, and they were taking advantage of some miscues by the Nuggets on offense and putting up points in a hurry. As the quarter was winding down, Denver began to close the gap, and they were able to battle back with Nikola Jokic leading the charge, as he had 17 of the team’s 30 points in the first quarter. They trailed 32-30 heading into the second period.
