The San Antonio Spurs ( 27 - 16 ) defeated the Denver Nuggets ( 18 - 24 ) 109 - 99 on Tuesday at the Pepsi Center in Denver . Coming out of the third quarter up just 80 - 76 , the Spurs had a fantastic fourth quarter both offensively and defensively , out - scoring the Nuggets 29 - 23 to secure the 10 - point victory on the road . The Spurs were able to shoot 11 - for - 27 from the three - point line , while the Nuggets shot just 5 - of - 14 , which may have been the difference in this one . After playing in only 23 minutes during Sunday 's game against the Utah Jazz , Tony Parker returned to playing a full minutes load , finishing with a team - high of 18 points ( 8 - 16 FG , 1 - 1 3Pt , 1 - 2 FT ) , while also adding seven assists in 32 minutes . It did n't look as if he suffered any setbacks in the win , so hopefully he can continue to play without a minutes restriction moving forward . Kawhi Leonard had a very good showing . He went 6 - for - 13 from the field and 3 - for - 6 from the three - point line to score 17 points , while recording 15 rebounds . The double - double marked his seventh of the season . Tim Duncan reached double figures as well with 16 points ( 6 - 10 FG , 4 - 4 FT ) . He had a season - low of five rebounds , but the Spurs were still able to secure the win . Coming off the bench , Aron Baynes had his second successful night in a row . He went a perfect 3 - for - 3 from the field and 9 - for - 9 from the free throw line to score 15 points in only 15 minutes . In Sunday 's game he had 12 points and 11 rebounds , so he was able to stay hot in the victory . For the Nuggets , Kenneth Faried and Arron Afflalo did most of the damage against the Spurs . Faried finished with 26 points ( 9 - 17 FG , 8 - 12 FT ) and 14 rebounds , marking his first double - double in the last four games . He only scored a combined 13 points over his last two outings , so it was a huge bounce back game for him . Afflalo on the other hand shot 6 - for - 11 from the field and 3 - for - 6 from the three - point line to score 21 points , while adding three steals . He had only two points in Monday 's loss to the Warriors , so like Faried , it was good to see him turn things around . Rookie center Jusuf Nurkic nearly had a double - double of his own , finishing with 10 points and nine rebounds . He 's now averaging 7 points and 6 rebounds so far this season . The only other Nugget to reach double figures in points was Wilson Chandler who had 11 points ( 5 - 11 FG , 0 - 1 3Pt , 1 - 3 FT ) in 37 minutes . The Spurs ' next game will be on the road against the Chicago Bulls on Thursday , while the Nuggets will be at home against the Boston Celtics on Friday .
