A very poor start to the season for Denver, who suffered their second loss in as many NBA games. The Nuggets lost to the Los Angeles Clippers 109-104 last night on their home court.
Once again, the best individual player of the match was our Nikola Jokić, who scored 41 points in 37 minutes and had nine rebounds, four assists, two steals, and one block. Admittedly, he also had five turnovers.
However, all of that was not enough to secure the first win of the season. Jamal Murray stood out with 22 points, while Christian Braun added 11.
The guests from Los Angeles led almost the entire game. The Nuggets took the lead at the start and then again at the end of the third quarter and briefly in the last. The best player on the winning team was Norman Powell with 37 points, and Ivica Zubac also stood out with 24 points and 15 rebounds. James Harden had 23 points and 16 assists.
The Miami Heat defeated Charlotte 114-106 as guests. Our national team player Nikola Jović had a good game for the visitors. In 30 minutes, he scored 10 points and had four rebounds and six assists. Jimmy Butler was the most efficient with 22 points.
Our Vasilije Micić played for the home team and spent 10 minutes on the court. However, his performance was more than modest as he had only one assist. LaMelo Ball stood out for the Hornets with 27 points.
