Michael Malone with a pretty loud signal that he wishes the Nuggets had more rim protection: “We don’t have great rim-protection. It’s just not one of Nikola’s strengths. He’s a phenomenal player, but he’s not a shot-blocker.”
“Our inability to guard the rim for three quarters.” pic.twitter.com/OFrreh7qJg – 9:01 PM

Nuggets announce Bones Hyland is active and Ish Smith is inactive tonight.
Getting Bones Hyland back should be a big boost for a Nuggets bench that needs his creation. – 8:21 PM

#Spurs executives told Hillary Cauthen in June that Pop was aware of her allegations against Josh Primo, according to her civil lawsuit against the club & player.
But her attorney isn’t so sure: “I think we may have concluded…she was being lied to.”

Boxes shipped by the #Spurs in front of the $700,000-plus, 2,939-square-foot home of Josh Primo in Northwest San Antonio. Neighbors, who described him as polite, quiet & maintaining a low profile, say he was last seen there Oct. 30, two days after the club abruptly waived him. pic.twitter.com/eKdjC7IJla – 7:50 PM

Isaiah Roby (coming back from flu) is available for Spurs tonight in Denver, but will be on limited minutes. Zach Collins (leg contusion) is warming up and will be a game-time decision.
Devin Vassell will again come off the bench and remains on a minutes restriction. – 7:42 PM

Just walked down the locker room hallway and I heard Nikola Jokić yell “Coach Coach Coach” coming out of the Nuggets locker room. Turned around and saw him greet Gregg Popovich and spend some time catching up. – 7:31 PM

Nuggets turnover percentage over the last four games is just 12.9 which is 3rd lowest across the league over that span.
Inversely, their defensive rating is up to 7th in those three games at 107.8.
Those two stats are directly correlated. – 6:55 PM

The Spurs, despite being 5-2, are 28th in Net Rating via Cleaning the Glass, which filters out garbage time.
Keldon Johnson and Devin Vassell have each been about 22-5-5 guys on elite efficiency, so Denver will have their hands full on the wings. Opportunity for Nuggets wings. – 5:47 PM
