  • Denver Nuggets Daily: Back-to-back big victories for Denver
    For the newest Denver Nuggets Daily Podcast, T.J. McBride dives into the Nuggets back to back wins over the San Antonio Spurs and the Phoenix Suns on back-to-back nights.
    First off, on Friday night, the Nuggets beat the Spurs 102-99 in what was one of the stranger finishes of any NBA game all year. Denver, who were already without six players due to injury, lost both Nikola Jokic and Torrey Craig as they each fouled out of the game in the fourth quarter. To make things worse, both Jamal Murray and Malik Beasley sprained their ankles late in the game as well, but Denver still found a way to win.
    Then, the Nuggets traveled to Phoenix to take on the Suns for their second game of the back-to-back. Denver came away with a 122-118 win, but the game should have never been that close. Thankfully, Murray put up a whopping 46 points, six rebounds and eight assists while Jokic chipped in 23 points, eight rebounds, and nine assists as Denver escaped with their 23rd win of the year.

  • Denver Nuggets Daily: Monte Morris on the Flint, Michigan water crisis
    For the newest Denver Nuggets Daily Podcast, T.J. McBride had a special guest. Denver Nuggets backup point guard Monte Morris joined the show to talk about his hometown of Flint, Michigan and the water crisis that his old neighborhood is currently enduring.
    Throughout the podcast, Morris discussed the water crisis, how he has been able to assist his community (so far), how the water crisis is hurting children more than anyone else, and how nothing has been done to solve the issue even after nearly five years of unusable and undrinkable water.
    If you are looking for a way to donate, support, or help fund people who are trying to make a difference in Flint as the community suffers through this water crisis, here are a few ways to do so:
    Reach out to the Flint Water Fund to donate money to supply residents with clean bottled water.
    The Convoy of Hope is another charitable organization that takes donations that they then use to supply the city of Flint with clean water.
    As Morris said in the interview, it is children who are usually most affected by the water crisis in Flint. You can donate to Save the Children or the Community Foundation of a Greater Flint which are organizations that specifically look to help educate and help kids in the area.
