Up to six men finished with two digits in scoring by the Denver team. The most outstanding was Emmanuel Mudiay who finished with 21 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. With the same number in these last two sections of the game and with 17 points, Paul Millsap finished. For his part, Nikola Jokic contributed a double-double of 15 points and 11 rebounds. Meanwhile, the work of Will Barton and Mason Plumlee, both with 13 points, was also highlighted. In addition, Gary Harris finished with 10 points. Wilson Chandler, meanwhile, was well defended by the defense of the Thunder, which was insufficient to the inability of the Oklahoma to stop the rest of his teammates.
