Panzura postgame wrap: Nuggets 114, Pelicans 112 | New Orleans Pelicans
Denver entered Wednesday’s game ranked third in the NBA in offensive efficiency, not needing any help to put up big numbers on the scoreboard. Unfortunately for New Orleans, the Pelicans provided plenty of it, turning the ball over at a high rate en route to dropping the opener of a critical three-game road trip.Despite those miscues, New Orleans had a chance to tie the game in the waning seconds, but Nikola Jokic blocked Zion Williamson’s layup attempt at the rim. The Pelicans argued for a foul call against Jokic, but the Nuggets instead collected the rebound and sealed the win.
