A dreadful night at the free throw line kept the Nuggets from extending their win streak to 10 Sunday night. Story from msinger
Denver’s free throw shooting was abysmal Sunday against the Thunder, and it cost them in a 101-99 loss. The Nuggets connected on just 17 of 33 from the line and Jamal Murray missed a jumper at the buzzer that would’ve sent the game to overtime. Instead, it snapped their winning streak at nine.
Murray poured in 26 points and dished nine assists to follow up his first career triple-double last game. Making Sunday’s result even more frustrating was that Denver’s defense clamped down in the fourth quarter, limiting the Thunder to just 20 points. Trailing 81-74 entering the fourth, the Nuggets had to be cleaner defensively to keep their winning streak alive.
