The #Nuggets win for the 2nd time this season when outscoring the opponent in just one quarter. In the first 7 games Denver has yet to win 3 quarters in a single game. I believe this is the 6th triple-double in Nikola Jokic’s career in which he did not play in the 4th quarter. #DigDeep

The #Nuggets scored 76 points in the paint, the 21st time with that many since 1996 (next most in NBA is Grizzlies with 15). Denver scored 40 paint points in the 2nd half (Raptors scored a total of 42 points in 2nd). Nikola Jokic scored 26 in the paint, tying for the most in the NBA this season. #DigDeep

The #Nuggets have won 6 straight against the #Raptors. 15 of the last 28 meetings have been decided by 6 or fewer points (including last 5 in a row). Denver has had an equal or higher FG% in each of the last 9 series games and has scored 120+ points in 4 of the last 5 meetings.

The #Broncos have had 3 straight games without committing a single turnover. The only longer streaks in team history were in 2005 and 2013-14 (4 straight games both times). Denver's 6 giveaways through 8 games is tied for the fewest through 8 games in team history (2005, 2014).

Nikola Jokić just recorded his 200th career triple-double in his 814th career game. The only franchises with more are the Lakers (343 in 6,172 games), Kings (324/6,173), Thunder (212/4,774) and Celtics (204/6,281). The #Nuggets are 154-46 (.770) when he gets one. #DigDeep

The last time two different Nuggets rookies started in the same season was 2022-23 (Braun and Watson, who didn’t start until April). The last time two started before the new year was 2016 (Murray and Juancho).
Trevon Brazile will get the start tonight for Denver
