The Phoenix Suns hosted the Denver Nuggets in their home preseason opener. Suns’ head coach Frank Vogel made the decision to sit Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant, and Devin Booker.
The starting lineup for Phoenix was Saban Lee, Grayson Allen, Josh Okogie, Chimezie Mutu, and Jusuf Nurkic.
The Nuggets played most of their starters, Jamal Murray, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Aaron Gordon, and Nikola Jokic started along side Justin Holiday.
The first quarter went back and forth as both teams had sloppy moments.
