Last night, the Nuggets took down the Rockets in an impressive showing from Jokic and Murray, who combined for 74 points. The Nuggets dynamic duo took on the extensive pressure of the Rockets’ top ranked defense and made big plays every time they were needed. With some help from Tim Hardaway Jr. Spencer, Jones, and others, the Nuggets survived the injuries and broke a home losing streak against one of the best teams in the NBA.
