The Denver Nuggets ( 33 - 47 ) defeated the San Antonio Spurs ( 65 - 14 ) 102 - 98 on Friday . The result looks to be a bizarre one on the surface , but the circumstances tell the whole story . San Antonio played this game without almost all of their starters and the Nuggets actually came into this game as a favorite . The key for Denver was their defense , as they held the Spurs to 42 percent from the field and 21 percent from three - point range . Two steals late capped off this win , as it led to the final four points of the game for the Nuggets . San Antonio is secure in the two - seed in the west , so this was a good opportunity to rest players and give away a loss . Tim Duncan was the one starter who played , and he led the team with 21 points and snatched down seven rebounds in the loss . Veterans David West and Kevin Martin both played well too , as they scored 17 points a piece . On deck for the Spurs is their toughest test of the season , as they host the Golden State Warriors to protect their perfect home record . Denver has been struggling recently , but they are now the only team in the league to beat the Golden State Warriors and the Spurs this season . Jusuf Nurkic scored a career - high 21 points , while recording nine rebounds , two blocks and two steals in a rare start . Nikola Jokic started next to Nurkic and snatched down 15 rebounds of his own in the win . Rookie Emmanuel Mudiay continued his impressive season , as he tallied 20 points , six rebounds and five assists . Up next for Denver is a matchup with the Utah Jazz on Sunday .
