The Spurs‘ losing streak now stands at 12 after a 132-120 loss in Denver that was more one-sided than the final score suggests. After a decent first half, San Antonio simply couldn’t keep up with Nikola Jokic and an aggressive Nuggets offense that attacked the rim relentlessly on their way to an easy win.
Things weren’t looking so bad early on. Victor Wembanyama was the Spurs’ offense to start the game, logging the team’s first seven points. On the other end, Zach Collins was being physical with Nikola Jokic inside, which allowed San Antonio to keep the score close.
