The Brooklyn Nets minus Kyrie Irving rallied in the final minutes of the game to beat Denver Nuggets 105-102 to improve their season record to 13-10 (win-loss record). The two teams have met earlier in the season on November 14, when the Nets lost their star point guard Kyrie Irving, who aggravated a shoulder impingement, and blew a 16-point cushion to lose the match. This time Spencer Dinwiddie was the difference maker between the sides as he helped Nets to victory.
