Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic, right, drives to the basket as Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama defends in the first half of an NBA basketball game, Monday, March 25, 2024, in Denver. Against an injury-riddled Grizzlies team, the Nuggets led by as many as 29 points while shooting 53.3% from the floor en route to a 128-103 victory on Monday night at Ball Arena. Denver has won four straight games and improved to 14-2 since the All-Star break.
Denver, however, has been no stranger to the injury bug. Guard Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon did not play, forcing guards Reggie Jackson and Christian Braun to be inserted into the starting lineup. Malone added that the team will see how Murray is feeling before Denver’s matchup against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night.
Braun, making his second start of the season, continued to ruin Memphis’ evening. He scored Denver’s first six points of the third quarter. With 10:16 to go, Jokic grabbed a defensive rebound, dribbled down the floor and threw a no-look pass to Braun for a layup, which gave the Nuggets a 75-49 advantage.
For the most part, the Nuggets were stout defensively. They held Memphis to 39.8% shooting and 25.6% from the 3-point line while recording nine steals and seven blocks. Denver had seven players record a steal, including Jokic with a team-best of three. Watson tallied three blocks.
