Paul Millsap followed one of his worst games of the season with his best, thanks to extra film sessions.

Millsap scored a season-high 25 points on 9-of-11 shooting, and he had just two points in a 113-101 loss at Oklahoma City on Friday night but made a quick recovery. He hit his first six shots before missing with 54 seconds left in the first half.

Nikola was nearly as sharp, making all six of his shots in the first half and going 11 of 14 from the field.

Denver shot 58.9% after hitting 68.2% in the first half.

„I remember looking up at one point in the first quarter with like three minutes to go and we were shooting 100%,“ Nuggets coach Michael Malone said. „I don’t know if it was good offense or no defense.“

The 73 points in the first half were a season high. … Denver is now 10-1 against the Northwest Division
