Starters for the 2025 NBA All-Star game were announced on Thursday night and the Denver Nuggets superstar center Nikola Jokić was named as a frontcourt starter for the Western Conference. Jokić will join Kevin Durant of the Phoenix Suns and LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers in the West frontcourt while Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder will man the backcourt for the West.

The Denver Nuggets defeated the Sacramento Kings 132-123, winning their fourth game in a row and 12th in their last 15 games. The Kings were 10-1 in their previous 11, and this ended up being a very hard fought victory that the Nuggets earned.
If Murray can build off his performance on Tuesday, the Nuggets will be a tough team to contend with in the playoffs.
The Nuggets dispatched the Nets, and Nikola Jokić, who missed the last two games with an illness, plus Russell Westbrook, logged triple-doubles.  They started the night back peddling, as the Nets made their initial five attempts,
