Denver Nuggets vs Toronto Raptors Full Highlights 1st QTR | Mar 11 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

[Applause] that’s how the Toronto Raptors are going to look to score though getting seals getting out in running fast break situations hon his first dunk of the night and the Nuggets lead it two to nothing Nicole yic throw it up Aaron Gordon’s going to be there in some way

Shape or form yic and Gordon that connection is next level now alen who’s a good three-point shooter good outside shooter period he knocks it in coming over from the Utah Jazz just signed a new uh two-year extension they like him a lot and Toronto its first lead nuggets 44

And 20 we’re second in the west one game back of first place o KC half game back of Minnesota first three in the last three games by Nicole leic is Off the Mark Raptors 23 and 41 they’re 12th in the East they six games out of the play

And so they’re going nowhere fast as Porter has it’s kind of a revamp middle of the Season made a bunch of Trades got a bunch of different guys and they’ve been sinking ever since but there’s hope for the future yic in the lane drop it

Up and in that floater from niic is just picture perfect and Jamal Murray knows exactly where to get yic the ball so that he can get to it now l in the lane under pressure from yic misses now the Joker swiveling over to Porter order guarded by Bruce Brown back to yoke yoke

Averaging 26 A Game 12 and half rebounds nine assists so averaging a s double oh no oh Gordon was 14 and2 so it balloon three points when they announced the additional players out tonight 10 confirm not an error RJ Barrett throws it down so the former nicobar coming over in the OG

Anobi trade and the Nuggets lead 65 now Gordon Gordon inside and he’s just two free throw rattles in rattles out Porter goes and gets it Michael Porter coming off a good game 19 in the Saturday win very efficient under toic and shot his block got it back

Missed it got it back majority of their basketball threw Nicole leic on the floor so he is just always in control four points four rebounds and assist for joic Raptors coming off an overtime loss at Portland but I didn’t put him on there cuz they’re not going to

Play it’s like half their roster 10 s you have to have eight you have to two up eight to be elgible now Murray trying to get the ball to joic and told us tonight he will not be involved with the Serbian national team this summer in Paris Ser should have a great team

Cavius cwell po no rebound Bruce Brown Championship member of the team a year ago Brown inside and off the glass he goes you have to pick the ball up sooner than that in transition if you’re the Denver Nuggets defense someone’s got to stop ball find them in transition behind

The back kcp is wide open give it to P he’ll make that won’t he yeah he will mtj with the long three shooting almost 40% now from Triple L what a selfless pass to from kavus Cal C who had a pretty good looking himself but get m

Going here early in this one kcp rips it from Grady dick here he comes Porter going to try it again and he hits it again from one side of the three-point line to the other both from teammate cavius calwell po Michael Porter junr down and ready to shoot 15 to9 our score

And O Len mid-range 15-footer he can make those the rler Raptors have it RS on the road this year just 10 of 22 as oen hits the triple Kelly oen off to a very good start and oen already taken five shots in this game he averages just eight

Field goal attempts per game but with all the injured Raptors I have a feeling that oen recognizes he needs to be more aggressive at Toronto wants to have a chance inside yic puts it up and in getting back to oen 39 12% from three on the year but with Dorado just 31% trying

To find his with them the Raptors bad start one for five but since they are four for four not yours lock in yes sir I joint L today fell ah well we got a live wire tonight up he’s not even in the game yet I love that he set the precedent early by

Telling Joff uhuh get locked in I’m with altitude tonight Barrett is inside and Murray blocked his shot and a nice tip in by Grady dick who is quietly having a pretty good rookie season active scores shoots the three pretty good Defender 1918 nuggets on top here in the first quarter lookas trying

To find a little inspiration fagi is in into Gordon Gordon put it up an in Aaron Gordon a little too musly for the Raptors so far I want to point out there too Aaron Gordon held that contact with his Defender the entire time the ball

Was in Flight in the air not giving them an opportunity to get that steal ball is deflected it flies to kav’s cwell Pope and now joic has it joic backing his way [Applause] in Aaron Gordon shoot a three and Grady dick runs it around 13th overall pick averaging 172 minutes per

Game and he misses the three yit the rebound y it’s 12 and a half rebounds the game give it to Gordon Gordon coming off a interesting game 7.7 assists in the win oh and throwing it away Richie fighting a shooting slump trying to break out and Coach Malone talked about this rotation

After the Nuggets last game against the Jazz he gets Reggie Jackson a little bit earlier because M Murray is going to come in and run with that second unit Freeman Liberty cast off and yic has it we should tell you Jon Porters in the game first time he has played against

His brother Michael Porter Jr yic pass no good oh look at Gordon he wrestled it away and put it in 2319 going full beast mode so far here tonight being aggressive get to the rim 10 points for Gordon here in the first quarter long range jte Porter they

Say he’s a b very very good shooter well it’s not surprising runs in the family you have to know that the porters can knock it down from Deep jont Porter played one season at Missouri his 20 games a two-way player now Jackson for three and Porter the rebound opportunity

Said ktie wii after we listened to the head coach yic with the deflection Reggie’s got it get a jam one foris yeah yeah you talked about it Chris Nicole has some of the best hands in the NBA and that can be seen on both offense and defense one of the best deflectors

Out there first bucket scored by the Denver bench remember the Denver bench on Saturday put up 40 and has outscored opposition in the last two games Barrett trying to get around yic does that one rattles out and they get the bucket anyway maybe let’s see who they give it

To they give it to aaji bter in the lane he throats one up I I saw a graphic somewhere about Michael Porter Jr that he’s one of the leading mid-range shooters in the NBA percentage wise like 58% Barrett round he goes you like Barrett as a player he’s got some skills

Without a doubt I mean remember him in New York too with the Knicks and so many people just like the way he competes the way he plays with Toronto he’s doing the same thing 21 points per game yeah 23 or more five of the six now dump it into

Yic B it away bad pass now Grady dick going to shoot a three and nail it so careless play by the Chris with Katy Wy Scott Hastings on board now Richie Jack into Gordon the Nuggets playing a little bit sluggishly would you agree with that Scott uh

Absolutely Chris two timeouts in a row they were talking about getting the energy up especially in transition the last one it it was little more heat at gu getting into other guys DeAndre going boys we got to respect these guys not the same energy we’ve seen over the last

Couple nights oh McDaniels inside and he puts it up and in and think about the way that Denver Nuggets started against the Utah Jazz 34 Point halftime lead so they came out of the gate and knew look we we want to set the tone early in this

One that has not been the case so far in this game against the Raptors and now McDaniels away again he slipped out Jamal Murray kcp scoreless so far [Applause] Reggie Jackson and it’s knocked out of B last Touch by the Nuggets Jackson’s getting some really good looks at at the basket

He just needs one maybe two of them to fall to find his rhythm a little bit he’s so close just a little bit off Dustin holiday set to come in he’s in the rotation now according to Mike Malone you’ll see more playing time now Bruce Brown guarded by Christian Brown Bruce Ball three

And he Nails it so the Raptors are up 34- 27 seven-point Advantage three-point shooting a big defense now Watson knocks it in he hasn’t been shooting well from three-point range recently but his two-point range very good Watson’s been showing off what he’s capable of offensively too we’ve seen little

Glimpses of his game on that side of the floor really expanding getting a little bit more in his bag getting a little bit more comfortable that shot by Watson ended a 10 nothing scoring run Dante Porter it’s no good and Watson the rebound Murray Jackson Brown Watson ni

In there now Christian Brown who made all three threes last game oh and nii misses a bunny raptors have it really good offense from the second unit right there for Denver you can’t ask for a better look than that pass it out Grady dick short Christian Brown goes and gets it Christian has

Made 10 of his last 11 shots in the last three games and a fire of three got it take that H three games he’s going to have to explain because I don’t understands that 3432 Hastings thinks I have magical power I can Jinx players oh no we talked

About that last time okay so that was in relation to Christian Brown yeah 10 of 11 now he’s 11 of 12 okay I’m there I caught up I’m here folks get with the I’m at the party now I’ve arrived Jamal Murray’s got it looking for his first hoop hasn’t taken a

Shot 37 in the win now Watson Cross Court Reggie five on the clock old family has learned how to do from a very young age and it’s because his dad constantly stays ready his dad works out all the time when he comes to visit him and Denver he’s always working out he’s

Always staying ready 5 Seconds Barrett trying to get to the backing in here he comes and Nai blocks it
