NBA Mini: Denver Nuggets vs. San Antonio Spurs | Extended Highlights
119 Denver now long range Vel that’s good. So everybody lighten it up here. He’s got nine. [Music] Harrison Barnes and Barnes over the top and drops it in. But he’s got game trying to whip it into the corner to Peyton Watson. Harper’s got it. Harper on the run. Harper score. That’s what he can do. They like him a lot. Dylan Harper. He’s just 19 years old. He gets three turnovers in the last four possessions. Going to post Yic up. This is where he should go to work. Yic in the lane. SW rolls it and puts it away. Well, if he gets by your first defender, the only people coming over are much smaller in the lane. So drops it in. Taking one shot. He made it. Take a short break. One-point lead for the Spurs and a concession basket right there. Now Kevin Johnson waltzes in for a dunk. 2625 champ already with eight now. Joic down the middle to Bruce Brown. A beautiful cut and a nifty dish. So the Nuggets by three here. They’re paying a lot of attention to Fox and the lob is up to Cornet. That’s something he can do. paying attention to Fox. Puts it up. Puts it in. Ties it up at 29. Dear Fox. Both teams scoring easily here at the outset. Pass under to Watson and nobody guarding the doctor. An easy play for him. Both teams scoring easily. Zeke Naji has come on. They’re going to count the bucket here. They get him stretched, but then he just comes back. Zeke, instead of sliding the body over, slides. Chicago Sacramento. There’s a flare. You heard it called. And the out is good. See, that’s that weak side guy. He’s got to slide over the lane. Joker kind of. When the Spurs without Wimbeyama play like this, this is a five out offense that is a drive and kick collapse and uh and create advantages offense. As you see Zeke Naji get the put back dunk right there. It’s a challenge for everybody. Everywhere Scott defensively and offensively. Yeah. Carter Bryant a little bit trying to doing what he does. Kind of weaving around. Bruce Brown’s got it. No, but Naji is there. Niag had no idea where he was going to go with he drove baseline just to pick it up and and nearly traveled before he turned it over. Corner three. Wow. Watson bounce pass into Yoke. And Yic way off the mark. Got it back. Puts it up left-handed. Yes. And a foul. The joke’s on you. Boxing out 7 ft. 280. Not that easy, is it Scotty? No. Not when he wants it. Trying to slow down Vel. They’ve got Spencer Jones on him now. Stolen. Ham with the jam. Block shot. You got a steal to turn over on the other end. Another steal on this play right here. The defense is picked up and Nuggets got to secure that rebound underneath. Put it away. Spencer Jones. Oh my goodness. He did it again. Here’s that pass. That left-handed again. Yep. Yep. behind the back on the money. Spencer Jones drops it in for a short roll. If he can give you some offense, Scott Harrison Barnes got to count the basket. Wow. It’s going to back the defender up. You see Murray back up all the contact. Spencer Jones in and out. Yeah, both of them. He just missed two in a row from three. Both of them in and out. Box is on the line. Blocked. Watson was there. Head of basketball operations for the Spurs. Major Domo if you like. Oh, good pass. Cam Johnson. Yes. Good pass. Spencer Jones doing a little bit of everything. Front and front. So Joker says, “Well, I’ll just set a screen.” Then Murray gets a baby floater. Long range champ got it and a foul. There’s Joic trying to get free guarded by Sohan. Joic over the shoulder and shows. Hey, he’s learning the dunker spot really well. Yeah. Well, ML’s kind of had the hot hand. You’ve kind of gone away from him. You got to find him, I think, here in the last four. Champi tried it again and the Nuggets don’t box out and they’ve gone into a low here. Nuggets wanted to travel, didn’t get it. Fox now. Quarter three on the way. That’s good. Carter Bryant [Applause] Olen. Wow. And the Spurs come away with it. Spurs 44-30. Stripped round the corner into Valentunis against Cornette. Cornette to Val and he puts it away. Cornet not enough beef in the bucket. Back a little bit. That little fade away. 109 103 and Fox knifing through the Nuggets defense. Good play by Cornette. He’s a big 72 guy. Rain good. Wow. Big shot there by Devin Vel three just a moment ago. Scott, he just quickicked it. Little slow to challenge once once you kind of get in that calling for three seconds and pass and it’s batted away from Naji. Hold that defender off. Fox popping it out of the cells went on and he knocks in another one. Jones is on. Hardway gets it. Huge shot by Hardway Jr. I thought Jonas with some rough stuff and he got away with it. I thought he they goended it also. Hardway again. Hardway making it look easy. See if the Nuggets can get a stop here. Big time down defensively. Corner three, Barnes. Well, they keep leaving the guy in the corner to take the guy high because two guys clock is ticking. Nuggets by one. See, then we leave again Johnson. There it is. And the weak sides going all the way into the paint. But Denver’s got two turnovers and they’ve turned both into threes. Joic back in. Give the ball to Watson and that’s a nice play. 11 ties 20 lead changes inside so long for four-point lead for the Spurs. Can the Nuggets get going here? Can they get Joic going? Joic going to work. Here he comes. Lay it in. Need more of that first shot this half. make it 16 with that free throw. 121 120 Cell over the top. Got it. He’s feeling it. Everybody’s getting theirs. Elimination game. Murray 15 footer on the way. That scoring [Applause] champ counts. Foul. 2126. There are the free throws in the second half. Perfect. Joic. Cam Johnson. Another three ball. That’s good. Cornet bring it back out. Fox. Cornet. Oh, don’t leave. Wide open as Vel puts it in. I’m not sure why they keep leaving that three. Do it again. And he hits again. Did it again. It it it’s a little cut by Barnes because you had Peyton Watson on the high side of nine threes. See, just all the way into the paint, gets to Yic, puts it up and drops it in. Think you need a three here. Watch Murray [Applause] for a two. Four-point lead. The only loss in that uh sequence 111- 102 at Phoenix. And Murray throws it up and throws it in. 1.5 remaining. You got to get a 5second call. Assists, just one turnover. Oh, good move. And that’s going to do it. So, a frustrating loss for the Denver Nuggets. Tonight it’s on ESPN on Disney Plus. Turn it on.
