The Cordovan point guard Facundo Campazzo added a double-double, the third of his time in the NBA with 18 points and 12 assists, in the loose victory obtained by Denver Nuggets (21-19) at home over Portland Trail Blazers (16-25), by 140 to 108, for a new day of the regular phase of the NBA.
The former Real Madrid Cordovan played for 27 minutes and 29 seconds, a period in which he scored 18 points (3-6 in triples, 4-4 in doubles and 1-2 in free kicks) and gave 12 assists, adding three lost balls, four robberies and four infractions.
In Denver, Will Barton returned, scorer of the game with 21 points, already recovered from a left foot injury, followed by Nikola Jokic with 20 and Jeff Green with 19.
For its part, Portland, in a very bad season, played very diminished without its star Damian Lillard, in addition to Christian James McCollum, Anfernee Simons, Norman Powell, Larry Nance Junior and Cody Zeller.
The Nuggets were coming off a tough loss as visitors to the Los Angeles Clippers by 87-85 after winning by 25 points (59-34 midway through the third quarter), which led to a harsh reprimand from coach Michael Malone for all the team members.
