Denver, Nov. 23. – (Adnkronos) – After seven defeats in a row, the Detroit Pistons (4-15) are smiling again, winning 110-108 on a complicated field like Denver’s (their first away win of the season) thanks to Bojan Bogdanovic’s 22 points and at 21 by Alec Burks: decisive in the final sprint finish – conquered by the Nuggets (10-7) after being down by 12 lengths in the fourth period – Aaron Gordon’s error from under the attacking rebound, who misses the shot that would have been a draw and would have taken the game to overtime.
So the Colorado team stops despite the sumptuous game of Nikola Jokic who nearly triple double with his 31 points, 10 assists and 9 rebounds, collected with 12/16 shooting in a match in which he ends with +13 plus/ minus. The quintet is all in double figures, with 18 points from Michael Porter Jr., 17 from Gordon and 10 points each for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and an inaccurate Jamal Murray (who also adds 8 assists).
