Denver had lost three of his last seven games, but these defeats came against quality teams: Boston, Oklahoma City and a Red Minnesota team.
On Saturday evening, the Nuggets lost at home against Tanking wizards. Again, how were they going to stop this ridiculous victorious game of Jordan Poole deeply with 1.8 seconds?
Washington, who has played relatively better lately, has been stimulated by a big evening of the recruit Alex Sarr, who left 34 points on Denver and struck five-polers himself.
This match was the second night on a back for Denver, but it did not slow down Nikola Jokic, who finished with 40 points and 13 rebounds. Jamal Murray added 24 and Russell Westbrook 22.
