 DENVER (AP) - DerMarr Johnson scored 17 points in his first start of the season and Marcus Camby had 18 points and 22 rebounds to help the Denver Nuggets to a 102-91 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night.
Carmelo Anthony matched his season high with 23 points for the Nuggets, who played without Kenyon Martin while the starting forward rested his tender left knee, still hurting after offseason surgery.
Wally Szczerbiak led the T'Wolves with 20 points. Kevin Garnett had 19 points and nine rebounds, but Minnesota fell behind by double digits late in the third quarter and never got closer.
