DENVER (AP) — Jamal Murray scored nine of his 27 points in the final 2:26, and the Nuggets spoiled Michael Porter Jr.'s return to Denver with a 107-103 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday night. Porter had a season-high 38 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for Brooklyn, which has lost seven straight. Porter was drafted 14th overall by the Nuggets in 2018 and played six seasons in Denver, helping the franchise win its first NBA title in 2023. The Nuggets honored Porter with a video tribute at the first timeout and he acknowledged the fans, who gave him a standing ovation. The Nuggets built an 87-79 lead with 8:43 left but Porter’s steal and layup tied it at 90 midway through the period.
