Comment on Nuggets vs. Thunder preseason observations: End of Denver’s bench struggles again in 4th loss

Nuggets vs. Thunder preseason observations: End of Denver’s bench struggles again in 4th loss

The Nuggets remain winless in preseason play with one game remaining after a 124-94 blowout loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday at Ball Arena. The last chance to earn a win is Thursday in Minnesota. Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Russell Westbrook were out this time for the Nuggets, leaving them with a cast of role players to fend off Oklahoma City’s full starting lineup — an inverse of Sunday’s game, when Denver ran the starters for three quarters against Phoenix’s bench. Nuggets coach Michael Malone said he had planned to rest Murray for this game even before his knee started bothering him Sunday while warming up. What awaits Strawther after outstanding preseason? Denver’s clear standout performers this preseason (other than the three-time MVP) have been Michael Porter Jr.
