Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray looked so confused when a fan ran onto the court. It was in the last seconds in a contest against the Miami Heat and Nuggets, and he has a look of incredulity on his face.
In his head, he's probably thinking “Like, really, man!”

The Nuggets ended up winning the contest by a score of 103-99. Nikola Jokic dropped a triple-double and truly dominated the opposing center, Hassan Whiteside. He had 29 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists while shooting 11 of 21 from the field. Murray played well on the evening, as he had 18 points, four rebounds, and six assists.
For the Heat, they ended up playing a more balanced game. Seven players ended up in double digits. Dion Waiters led all scorers with 15 points, three players had exactly 12 points, including Whiteside, who also had 11 rebounds. Wade had an excellent game off the bench as well, scoring 10 points, grabbing three rebounds, dishing out six assists and snatching away two steals.
Surprisingly, the Heat only had six turnovers on the night compared to the Nuggets' 16 total. The Nuggets just completely dominated the boards, grabbing 50 total compared the Heat's lackluster 38. The Heat also only shot 25.8 percent from deep. Though it was close, at the end their lack of rebounding lost them the contest.
The Nuggets are now 27-12 and sit in the first spot in the NBA's Western Conference. They've had the 4th best offense in the league, scoring 105.7 points per game. They will face off next against the Los Angeles Clippers at home.
