After a comeback victory in Game 1, the Nuggets look to maintain home-field advantage in Game 2 against the Lakers on Monday night.
Los Angeles led by as many as 12 points in the first half of Game 1 on Saturday night, but Denver mounted a furious comeback in the second quarter to take control. Nikola Jokic led the Nuggets with 32 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists, while all five Denver starters scored in double figures.
Anthony Davis (32 points, 14 rebounds) and LeBron James (27 points, eight assists) combined for 59 points in a strong effort in Game 1. But the Lakers lacked production elsewhere, especially from D’Angelo Russell , who made only 6 of 20 field goals and 1 of 9 from long distance.
The Nuggets have now reeled off nine straight wins over the Lakers, including a four-game sweep in last year’s Western Conference Finals.
