Denver Nuggets
The Denver Nuggets suffered their third defeat in a row after losing at home to the Dallas Mavericks by 115-116 on Wednesday. With that loss, the Nuggets slipped down to the fifth position in the Western Conference standings.
Nikola Jokic had an unusually quiet game to his standards with 19 points. The Denver Nuggets are the best shooting team in the NBA with 50% of their field goals made. However, shooting just 3% less against the Mavericks cost the Nuggets the match. In any case, coach Michael Malone needs to put his team back on track and end this losing streak.
