Michael Porter Jr. led an impressive Denver comeback with 23 points on 8-of-13 shooting here Tuesday night, but with Nikola Jokic contained and Jamal Murray not fully healthy, the Nuggets fell short.
TORONTO — Option No. 1 was getting swarmed in a continuation of the recent trend that has vexed him and the Nuggets. Option No. 2 might have actually been playing on one leg, as coach Michael Malone joked about before the game.
Michael Porter Jr. led an impressive Denver comeback with 23 points on 8-of-13 shooting here Tuesday night, but with Nikola Jokic contained and Jamal Murray not fully healthy, the Nuggets fell short of erasing a 24-point deficit in a 125-110 loss to the Raptors. Denver pulled within three points early in the fourth quarter but couldn’t quite overcome its worst defensive quarter of the season. Malone read the team’s tea leaves 90 minutes before tipoff, referring to what he “learned a long time ago: Understand why you win, understand why you lose.” Why the Nuggets were losing, he continued, was terrible defense. “For us to give ourselves a chance to win, we have to pick it up defensively.
