Shorthanded Nuggets Edge Raptors 106–103 After Buzzer Review

With Nikola Jokic sidelined by a knee injury, Denver's depth carried a heavier load.

Overview

  • A video review overturned Brandon Ingram’s apparent game-tying three at the horn, confirming the ball was still on his fingertips.
  • Peyton Watson led Denver with 24 points and Jamal Murray added 21 as the visitors closed out a tight finish in Toronto.
  • Scottie Barnes recorded a 20-14-10 triple-double for the Raptors, with Brandon Ingram scoring 30 and Immanuel Quickley contributing 22.
  • Jokic is expected to miss at least four weeks with a hyperextended left knee, increasing responsibilities for Murray and the Nuggets’ role players.
  • Toronto mustered only five points in the final 4:39 and its bench shot 5-for-34, while ex-Raptor Jonas Valanciunas left with a right calf strain.
