Jamal Murray fired a careless behind-the-back pass out of bounds, and Michael Malone had seen enough. A disgusted Malone responded by calling timeout about midway through the third quarter, clearly fed up with another Nuggets turnover as he stormed alone across the court to the free-throw line. Denver gave possession away 24 times against the Washington Wizards, ultimately dooming the Nuggets in a 109-104 loss Monday night at the Pepsi Center. Despite the sloppy play, Denver made a late push in the final minute. Nikola Jokic hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key to cut Washington’s lead to 102-100, before John Wall responded with jumper.
