With a chance to put even more distance between them and the second-seeded Grizzlies, the Nuggets wilted Saturday night in Memphis. Story from msinger
By virtue of Saturday’s stunning and humbling result — a resounding 112-94 pounding over the Nuggets — they didn’t have any reason to be. The Nuggets snapped their four-game winning streak and fell to 42-19, fumbling a chance at distancing themselves from a feisty Memphis squad.
The rout was so convincing Denver’s starters weren’t needed for the fourth quarter. Nikola Jokic ended the night with 15 points and 13 rebounds but only three assists. Jamal Murray struggled with just eight points on 3-of-13 shooting. Though there were myriad issues with Denver’s approach — turnovers and woeful 3-point shooting to name a few — Aaron Gordon’s absence for the fifth consecutive game due to a rib contusion hurt them inside.
Whatever urgency the Nuggets discussed at halftime wasn’t apparent to start the third quarter. They were lackadaisical in their rotations and slow to adjust when switching to zone. Neither strategy mattered, as Memphis worked them inside and out. Turnovers led to run-outs, especially for Morant, who converted on several acrobatic finishes.
