NBA League: Denver loses third in a row

Denver’s Serbian star Nikola Jokic’s twenty-seventh “triple double” didn’t help Denver lose after scoring 35 points, 20 rebounds and 11 assists, but he also missed the three-pointer that gave his team the win with 5 seconds left. Before the match ends. Michael Porter Jr. (23 points) and Jamaal Murray (16) helped Jokic, who sat out the fourth quarter with a sore left knee.

The Nets led 109-94 with eight minutes to play, but Denver went 6-for-21 to cut the deficit to 120-121 with 41 seconds left.

Michael Bridges, the top scorer in the winning lineup (25 points), gave his team the win with a free throw at the crunch time despite Jokic’s last-ditch attempt.
