After dropping the first two games on home court, the Denver Nuggets have now taken three straight following their 112-97 win in Denver Tuesday night. 

Nikola Jokic had a sensational performance, scoring 40 points with 13 assists and seven rebounds on 68 percent shooting, doing it all without turning over the ball once. A couple other stat lines stood out: guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 16 points while going four-for-five from three, while forward Aaron Gordon had a double-double with 18 points and 10 rebounds. 

The Nuggets will try to close the series Thursday night in Minnesota.
