  "account": "DENVER (AP) - Deni Avdija displayed his scoring prowess as he netted nine points out of the Portland Trail Blazers' 28 in their 118-110 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Monday night. The win extended the Trail Blazers' impressive road winning streak at the start of their season.\n\nDonovan Clingan contributed 17 points and 18 rebounds while Jrue Holiday, who came off the bench, posted a near triple-double with 17 points, 10 assists, and eight rebounds. Damian Lillard added 20 points to the Trail Blazers' tally.\n\nDenver was off to a rough start, losing two of their first three home games, with only a victory in overtime against New Orleans being their lone win. Jamal Murray led the Nuggets with 35 points, and Nikola Jokic chipped in with 26 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists. However, Jokic's triple-double potential didn't materialize, as he failed to contribute an assist or rebound in the fourth quarter.",
