DENVER -- The Philadelphia 76ers suffered a 144-109 blowout loss to the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday as their losing streak reached seven games. The Sixers trailed by as many as 35, allowing Denver to score 68 points in the paint and 37 fast break points. The Nuggets shot 61.2% from the floor and 16-for-31 from deep.

The Sixers, losers of six straight, are sitting at 15-26 and are looking to get back in the win column against a talented and healthy Nuggets team. The Sixers had three questionable players heading into this contest.

In the aftermath of the 76ers' loss to the Pelicans on Friday, star swingman Paul George opened up on his time playing center for the team. In a blunt response, George admitted that he was "bored" in the role and hinted at a desire to stick to his natural position at small forward.
