37 Transition Points: The Key to Nuggets’ Shocking Victory

The Denver Nuggets, missing three key starters, stunned the Golden State Warriors with a 114-105 win. Aaron Gordon led the charge with a season-high 38 points. Russell Westbrook, despite a less efficient shooting night, recorded his 203rd career triple-double with 12 points, 11 rebounds, 16 assists, and 3 steals. His performance included seven turnovers and a 5-of-17 shooting record. The Nuggets capitalized on Westbrook’s playmaking, shooting 16-of-24 on his passes. Denver’s transition game was crucial, scoring 37 points in transition, the second-highest amount Golden State has allowed this season. Westbrook’s 44th career triple-double with at least 15 assists puts him one shy of tying Oscar Robertson’s record.

The final 2:15 of Wizards-Nuggets was crazy: • 2 ties, 6 lead changes • Sarr and Porter Jr. trade threes • Russ gives Denver the lead • George gives Washington the lead • Murray ties it • Poole wins it with 35-footer

BYU 25th in the latest ESPN power rankings: https://espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/44033410/mens-college-basketball-power-rankings-ncaa-tournament-no-1-seed-race-2025… I don’t like the word “controversial” attached to BYU’s win at Arizona. That was a straight-up win, no diminishing qualifiers needed. The hip-check was a foul. Furthermore, Richie Saunders had to make two

One possession losses to Duke (#1), Michigan State (#11) and Kansas (#20) are not collectively more impressive than wins over Gonzaga (#8) by 8 points, over Iowa State (#9) by 7 points, over Arizona (#12) by 7 points, and over Kansas (#20) by 1 point (at Phogg Allen Fieldhouse)
