WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Nuggets didn’t let a beleaguered opponent stop their momentum. Denver survived a late run from the Washington Wizards to hang on 113-108 for their fifth win in a row. The win improved the Nuggets’ record to 48-22 and kept the pressure on the first-place Golden State Warriors, who entered Thursday up a half game in the standings in the race for the No. 1 seed. Rather than the Nuggets relying on any one singular star, Thursday’s win was a democratic effort with eight of their nine rotation players logging double-digit scoring nights.

Woeful Rockies lose to Marlins in 10th inning, slide to 7-24 after sweep
Denver Post, Thursday - 05/02/2024 - 03:43 PM
Just how low can the Rockies go? There’s no telling, not after getting swept in Miami by another bad baseball team. The Marlins finished their three-game broom job with a 5-4 walk-off win in the 10th inning Thursday afternoon at loanDepot park. The Marlins’ Jesus Sanchez lined a single to left off lefty reliever Jalen Beeks to drive in ghost runner Luis Arraez. After the game, the Rockies closed the clubhouse to the media to hold a team meeting, presumably to figure out how to stop the bleeding. The Rockies, who have lost five straight games, slid to 7-24 overall and 2-17 on the road.
