Denver, playing without two-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokić and losing Aaron Gordon to a strained hamstring during the game, held off a late run by the Milwaukee Bucks for a 102-100 road win on Friday night before their game scheduled for Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies was postponed due to the winter storm. The Nuggets were also without Peyton Watson (ankles), Jamal Murray (hamstring), and Jonas Valančiūnas (calf). All three are listed as probable for Tuesday night.
