On Monday, the Denver Nuggets (20-7) host the Utah Jazz (10-17) at Ball Arena, and if you’re wondering how to catch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Nuggets saw their six-game win streak snapped on Saturday, falling 115-101 to the Houston Rockets in the Mile High City. They shot a season-low 40.2% from the field and failed to score at least 110 points in a game for the first time since Oct. 31.
Nikola Jokić produced 25 points, seven rebounds and five assists to lead the Nuggets, while Jamal Murray scored 16 points and Bruce Brown added 12 points and 12 rebounds. Jokić has now scored at least 20 points in 10 straight games, the third-longest active streak in the NBA.
The Jazz are coming off a 128-127 overtime loss to the Orlando Magic on Saturday. The group overcame a 19-point second-half deficit to force overtime, before Desmond Bane converted the go-ahead layup with 0.9 seconds left to seal the win.
Keyonte George led the Jazz with 27 points and nine assists, Svi Mykhailiuk tallied 23 points and Isaiah Collier had 18 points, nine assists and five rebounds. Mykhailiuk registered his third 20-point game of the season with the performance.
The Jazz and Nuggets are meeting for the first of four matchups this season. Denver swept the series last year and has won six straight overall against Utah.
