The Thunder (1-0) had a cathartic 116-104 win over the San Antonio Spurs for Opening Night on Tuesday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was the best player with 32 points and four assists. Chet Holmgren had a little bit of a redemption with 14 points and seven rebounds.
Meanwhile, the Nuggets (0-0) will play their first game of the regular season. Nikola Jokic headlines another year for them. Same for Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon. But once again, Denver's depth remains a weakness and is filled with question marks.
