Okc has to give up in the new top game against Denver. Orlando shows a very weak performance in Houston.
Despite the good performance of Isaiah Hartenstein, the winning streak by Oklahoma City Thunder is torn in the basketball pro-league NBA. With 127: 140 OKC lost the meeting with the Denver Nuggets around superstar Nikola Jokic, the day before Hartenstein and Co. had won 127: 103 and booked their seventh success one after the other.
While Jokic shone from the ex-master from Denver with 35 points, 18 rebounds and eight assists, Hartenstein came to 20 points and seven rebounds. Oklahoma City remains with some lead from the Western Conference.
