Recap: Denver Nuggets jump out to huge lead, then hold on to beat Oklahoma City Thunder 105-98

The Denver Nuggets were fresh off beating the Orlando Magic last night but arrived early in the morning in Oklahoma City to take on the Thunder tonight. The Thunder played last night as well, but were afforded the luxury of not having to hop on a plane immediately after. Also working against the Nuggets was the fact that they were missing one of their best players as Gary Harris was unable to go with an ankle injury. The Nuggets started out slowly but found their shot towards the end of the first quarter and rode a solid defensive performance to build a big lead in the first half.
