Warriors Cruise Past Nuggets

Charles Jenkins scored a game high 24 points and led the Golden State Warriors to a 95-74 victory over the Denver Nuggets in the second day of the desert classic. The Warriors held the Nuggets to just 26 second half points to earn their second straight victory in front of a sold out crowd at Cox Pavilion on the campus of UNLV.

The Nuggets came out on fire shooting .679 percent in the first half yet finished the game at just .425 percent (28-66) for the game while the Warriors finished the game shooting .425 percent (31-73). Denver was held scoreless for 9 minutes and 28 seconds spanning the third and fourth quarters as Golden State built their commanding lead.

The Warriors had five players in double-figures, Jenkins with 24, Klay Thompson with 17, Harrison Barnes with 13, and Jeremy Tyler and Joe Ragland each with 11. The Nuggets were led by Jordan Hamilton with 18 points.

After playing the first two days of summer league the Golden State Warriors (2-0) will take a much needed break before returning to action on Wednesday, July 18 against the Miami Heat. The Nuggets (0-1) will return to action tomorrow as they play host to the Dallas Mavericks at 3 p.m.
