SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Devonte’ Graham converted a floater in the lane with 0.9 seconds remaining, and the San Antonio Spurs handed Western Conference-leading Denver a potentially damaging loss, rallying from 23 points down to beat the Nuggets 121-120 on Friday night.
The Nuggets (56-25) fell out of sole possession of first place in the West and into a tie with Oklahoma City and Minnesota. Because of tiebreakers, the Thunder were first, the Timberwolves second and and the Nuggets third heading into the final day of the regular season on Sunday.
Denver had won three straight and was coming off a home victory over Minnesota.
“Yeah, it’s disappointing. I mean, really disappointing,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. “We controlled our own destiny and what we accomplished on Wednesday night, we just gave it right back. You know what I mean? So, it’s easy to get up for Minnesota. I mean, our guys were locked in, they were focused, they were serious. And I don’t think we had the same approach for tonight’s game, but you had a chance to get to the one seed and now, obviously, we’ll likely be the three seed at the end of the day.”
