The Serbian center recorded his 140th career triple-double with 20 points, 14 rebounds, and 13 assists. Jamal Murray also had an excellent game, scoring 28 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Denver couldn\u2019t have asked for a better start to the game. Their offensive onslaught and defensive dominance gave the Nuggets a 20-point lead after the first quarter. However, things changed slightly in the following quarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kings began hitting shots at a high percentage in the second quarter and reduced the largest 23-point deficit to just seven points before halftime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">FIND OUT MORE IN SERBIAN:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\t<figure class='wp-block-newspack-blocks-iframe'>\n\t\t<div class='wp-block-embed__wrapper' style=\"height:600px; width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t<iframe\n\t\t\t\tid = 'newspack-iframe-Ykl5DjDgx9K5'\n\t\t\t\tlayout = 'responsive'\n\t\t\t\theight = '100'\n\t\t\t\twidth = '100'\n\t\t\t\tsrc = 'https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fserbiantimes%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0hL6zFomREbVQrRNpDzEBG8mVcXyEoXSAa9yoVNghMe38ioEWavHFDpqQsRHcTfUnl'\n\t\t\t\tstyle = 'height: 600px; width: 100%;'\n\t\t\t\tframeborder = '0'\n\t\t\t\tallowfullscreen\n\t\t\t><\/iframe>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/figure>\n\n\t<script>\n\t\tconst iframe = document.getElementById(\"newspack-iframe-Ykl5DjDgx9K5\");\n\t\tconst timerId = setInterval( function() {\n\t\t\t\tiframe.src = iframe.src;\n\t\t\t}, 2000 );\n\n\t\tiframe.onload = function() {\n\t\t\tclearInterval(timerId);\n\t\t}\n\n\t<\/script>\n\n\t\n\n\n<p>In the second half, Sacramento seemed closer to victory. The Kings went on a run at the start of the third quarter to take the lead and held it until the very end of the game. Monk, Fox, and Sabonis were outstanding, while Joki\u0107 and Murray kept Denver in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final minute of the game saw seven lead changes. However, with eight seconds left, Murray hit a two-pointer to give Denver the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Philadelphia 76ers defeated Charlotte with a score of 121-108 after an incredible performance by Tyrese Maxey, who scored 40 points. Vasilije Mici\u0107 failed to score but had five assists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Detroit Pistons defeated the Miami Heat 125-124 in overtime. Even Jimmy Butler\u2019s monstrous performance and triple-double were not enough to secure a victory for the visitors. Butler had 35 points, 19 rebounds, and 10 assists. Nikola Jovi\u0107 did not play in this game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Denver Nuggets vs Sacramento Kings Full Game Highlights | Dec 16 | 2025 NBA Season\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cvHxuvJLda8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/maja-rueger-psychotherapist-why-are-we-surrounded-by-gold-diggers-and-how-do-social-media-affect-relationships\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">MAJA RUEGER, PSYCHOTHERAPIST: Why are we surrounded by gold diggers and how do social media affect relationships?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/new-bishop-serafim-of-chicago-if-we-live-by-one-commandment-nothing-in-life-will-be-difficult-for-us-not-even-preserving-family-children-and-friends-in-difficult-times-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">NEW BISHOP SERAFIM OF CHICAGO: If we live by one commandment, nothing in life will be difficult for us.
