– Andre Bargnani
– Dwight Howard (unplayed) – 5:45pm

The final rotation in which the Nuggets defeated the Mavs (no Luka/Kyrie) 112-101.
– Jokic: 19 wins, 18 losses, 9 draws, not his best game. The Mavs made his life difficult.
-Westbrook: 21-10-7, just keep doing everything.
-Watson: 10-6-1-1-1, +30
-Gordon returns: 13-6-2, +23 in 18 minutes pic.x.com/STmigtg3rl – 5:31pm
Well, Nuggets fans, it’s time for Game 38 of the season vs. the Mavericks.
There is no Kyrie/Luka on the other side. Denver gets AG back with minimal restrictions. This is a borderline win.

Lively finished Thursday’s game with a double-double of 21 points and 16 rebounds. He added three blocks in the win. Although he had just one assist on Thursday, Lively’s passing continues to improve throughout the 2024-25 season. The Mavs center is averaging 2.5 assists per game this season, after averaging just 1.1 assists per game in 2023-24. “Very much,” Lively said of how proud he is of his playmaking as a center. “I just want to make sure everyone on my team gets open shots. Whether it’s Kyrie (Irving) or Luka (Doncic) on the floor, I want to give them easy shots. I’m going to try to just get easy possessions…I’m going to find my teammates and get them open. That’s what they did to me.” -via clutch point / January 10, 2025
