The Denver Nuggets defeated the Dallas Mavericks 117 - 107 at Pepsi Center on Monday . The wire - to - wire affair never saw one team pull away from the other , however , the control was mostly in favor of the Nuggets . The Mavericks ( 7 - 21 ) entered the game with an onslaught of injuries facing their lineup , including Dirk Nowitzki ( achilles ) , Andrew Bogut ( knee ) and J.J. Barea ( calf ) . All five Nuggets ( 12 - 16 ) starters finished in double figures scoring , led by Nikola Jokic and his 27 points . The impressive performance from Denver 's power forward also fell just one assist shy of a big triple - double , as he finished with 15 rebounds and nine assists on 13 - of - 17 shooting . Jamal Murray saw 14 minutes of action after dealing with soreness , but only contributed three points on four shots . The injuries have derailed the season for the Mavericks , who will struggle to compete with even the mid - level opponents . The road struggle continues for Dallas as well , who have just one road win on the year . Deron Williams led the team with 23 points , to go along with rebound and eight assists . Harrison Barnes also contributed an efficient effort with 19 points on 9 - of - 15 shooting . Impressively , both teams shot above 50 percent as a unit , but the strong 53 percent effort from the Mavericks was overshadowed by the even more powerful 57 percent effort from the Nuggets . The Nuggets play the second game of a back - to - back when they visit the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday , while the Mavericks visit the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday . Both the Denver Nuggets and Dallas Mavericks shot beyond efficiently from the field , and it is a shame that the 53 percent effort from Dallas was not enough to secure their second road win of the year . The Nuggets , on the other hand , shot 57 percent as a unit in the impressive performance , led by Nikola Jokic . The Nuggets power forward finished with 27 points , which led all scorers , to go along with 15 rebounds and nine assists on 13 - of - 17 shooting . Jamal Murray saw 14 minutes of action after dealing with soreness in his foot , but only contributed three points on four shots . All five starters for the Nuggets finished in double figures scoring , including a 24 point performance from Gary Harris , and an 18 point contribution from Emmanuel Mudiay . Danilo Gallinari was the only Nuggets starter to shoot under 50 percent from the field .
