Paul Millsap played an impressive 33 minutes last night. In this time he managed to make a solid 23 points (8 of 12 inside from the field, including 4 of 5 from the three-point mark). His contribution was important to the Nuggets twenty-six point win against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Once the ball was in the hands of the Nuggets it seemed as though they were putting in little to no effort into pushing away the Timberwolves who were almost constantly at a point deficit of greater than 10.

For this buzzer beater though, the veteran Paul Millsap took two steps and heaved the ball across the court from just inside the half line to make it. The third quarter then closed at 94-78 giving the Nuggets a 16 point lead.
