Reigning NBA champions Denver Nuggets suffered their heaviest defeat of the season as they were beaten 119-93 by Oklahoma City Thunder.
It is the Nuggets’ second defeat by Thunder in the space of two weeks and ends their six-match winning streak.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 40 points for Thunder and Chet Holmgren added 24 points.
Nikola Jokic had 19 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists and seven turnovers for the Nuggets, but they were without forward Aaron Gordon for the second consecutive game because of hand and facial injuries sustained from dog bites.
Elsewhere, Washington Wizards beat Brooklyn Nets 110-104 to earn their first win in four games.
