The Denver Nuggets handed the Los Angeles Lakers their fourth loss of the season tonight. LA is now 0-4 for the first time since their 2015-2016 season. The Nuggets move to 3-2 on the season, and tonight was definitely a balanced effort for them. They held an opponent under 100 for the first time this season in front of a sold-out crowd.
Denver had five players in double figures tonight. The leader was Nikola Jokic with 31 points, 13 rebounds, and 9 assists on 12-17 shooting. Bruce Brown stepped in for MPJ tonight, and he showed his value scoring 18 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists on 4-6 from beyond the arc.
