The Denver Nuggets came into tonight with a point to prove. Despite only losing twelve games all season, half of them have been against some of the worst teams in the league. With the 15-28 Charlotte Hornets in town the Nuggets made sure it wasn’t happening again tonight. It ended up being a bittersweet victory for Denver as Michael Porter Jr. and P.J. Dozier shined in big moments but Jamal Murray went down with an ankle injury in the first half and did not return. The Nuggets got up big and then held off a late comeback attempt only to drive up the score again and win easily 100-86.
