The Denver Nuggets turned a potentially dire road trip into a catalyst for future success with their last two wins. Peyton Watson has been present in both, lifting up the Nuggets with his scoring growth. Others have contributed, but Watson’s steadiness as a scorer over the last five games has saved the Nuggets’ record. He deserves a ton of credit and praise for the leap he’s made.
On the latest Pickaxe and Roll episode, Ryan Blackburn breaks down the Denver Nuggets big win vs the Boston Celtics to close a difficult road trip strong. Peyton Watson’s 30 points and Jamal Murray’s 17 assists highlight the offensive execution, while Zeke Nnaji led the charge defensively. Blackburn gives credit to Denver for stabilizing their season without Nikola Jokic available.
