The Denver Nuggets suffered a crushing loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night that ended with some controversial calls, but they were able to bounce

Nikola Jokic scored a season-high 34 points and had 14 assists, Aaron Gordon added 20 points and the Denver Nuggets never trailed in a 130-124 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Monday night.

Here's what the Kings said after coming back from a 15-point deficit to earn a big road win over the Milwaukee Bucks.

Nikola Jokic scored a season-high 34 points to go with 14 assists, Christian Braun added a season-best 21 points and the host Denver Nuggets held off the Sacramento Kings 130-124 on Monday night.

The still-undefeated Bulls hosted the Kings on Wednesday and handed them a 126-113 defeat. It was Chicago's fourth win of the season and Sacramento's fourth loss, and it demonstrated a pretty sobering truth for the moribund Kings: even the lowly Bulls have left them in the dust.

Zach LaVine had 31 points, DeMar DeRozan scored 29, and the Sacramento Kings turned back a late rally to hold on for a 135-133 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Kings are getting killed all over the World Wide Web after losing four of their first five games. They held fourth-quarter leads in each of their first four games with closes losses to the Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Lakers and Oklahoma City Thunder, but Kings guard Zach LaVine noted that close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.

Denver Nuggets' star Nikola Jokic is set to play against the Sacramento Kings tonight, November 3, 2025, despite a minor ankle issue. The reigning champions are nearly at full strength, with only Jamal Murray and Cameron Johnson questionable.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the OKC Thunder will host Russell Westbrook and the Sacramento Kings at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

The Sacramento Kings reportedly have their eyes on a talented free agent, but they don't have the means to sign him just yet.
