The Denver Nuggets defeated the San Antonio Spurs 128-118, pulling away late to secure a 10-point win. Denver’s offense was balanced and efficient, with strong ball movement (30 assists) and a decisive edge on the glass (58 rebounds) helping them generate extra possessions and second-chance opportunities. Julian Strawther led the Nuggets with 25 points, providing a consistent scoring punch that helped Denver answer San Antonio runs. Nikola Jokic added 23 points and anchored the Nuggets’ all-around attack, while Denver’s team play showed up in their assist total and steady shot-making (39-for-70, 56.0% from the field). San Antonio stayed competitive behind De’Aaron Fox’s 24 points and additional scoring from Devin Vassell (19) and Keldon Johnson (18). The Spurs’ perimeter volume was notable (47 three-point attempts), but Denver’s rebounding advantage and ability to create quality looks proved decisive as the game tightened. Going forward, Denver can point to its depth scoring and control of the boards as winning pillars. For San Antonio, the offensive production from its top options was encouraging, but improving possession control—particularly on the defensive glass—will be key in closing out games against elite opponents.
