The Denver Nuggets outlasted the Portland Trail Blazers 116-113 in an epic game, capped off by Nikola Jokic’s 40 points, 10 rebounds, and eight assists. He was a plus-15 tonight and made all the difference in the world. Jamal Murray added 24 points, including the last four of the game for Denver with a clutch floater and two free throws. Denver held Damian Lillard to 26 points and just 2/10 from the three-point line, an excellent performance by Torrey Craig and Malik Beasley on that end.
