Story highlights NBA returns to London

EPL stars feature in sell-out crowd

Nuggets beat Pacers 140-112

(CNN) Asked if he had any advice for first-time basketball spectators coming to the NBA's Global Game in London, Indiana Pacers forward Paul George quipped: "We do all our moves with our hands, not our feet."

It was prescient advice given the host of English Premier League football stars past and present in attendance to see the Denver Nuggets overturn a five-game losing streak by drubbing the Indiana Pacers 140-112 in the English capital.

Nuggets center Nikola Jokic had a game-high 22 points, while Wilson Chandler added 21 in front of another star-studded sellout crowd at the 02 Arena.

US billionaire businessman Stan Kroenke owns the Nuggets and is also Arsenal's majority shareholder. Arsenal striker Alexis Sanchez, midfielder Mezut Ozil and defender Per Mertesacker were courtside to see Kroenke's Nuggets team upset the odds and emerge unlikely winners against a hot Pacers side.
