Jokic, Nuggets Avoid Sweep With Game 4 Victory Over Warriors

DENVER (AP) — The Denver Nuggets avoided a sweep at the hands of the Golden State Warriors with a 126-121 win Sunday to send the series back to San Francisco for Game 5. Although no team has ever overcome a 3-0 deficit to win an NBA playoff series, the Nuggets are the only team ever to win back-to-back playoff series in which they trailed 3-1. Nikola Jokic led Denver with 37 points and fed Will Barton for the 3-pointer that sealed the victory that snapped Denver's seven-game postseason losing streak. Steph Curry led Golden State with 34 points and Klay Thompson had 33.
