Show Notes
The Denver Nuggets, despite a challenging injury season, are back in the playoff race, thanks to Peyton Watsons return. Watson, who last played on February 4th due to a hamstring strain, scored 14 points in his comeback game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The team showcased a balanced attack, with seven players scoring in double digits, led by Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic, who both scored 22 points. Jokic also recorded a triple-double with 14 rebounds and 14 assists. Watsons return adds a significant weapon to the team, with career-high averages of 14.9 points and 4.9 rebounds on nearly 50% shooting. As a restricted free agent this summer, Watson could attract big offers, but the Nuggets have the right to match and retain their rising star for a deeper playoff push.
