As we continue to look back on memorable Nuggets performances from over the years, a surprising performance jumps out from this day back in 2001.
In a 109-104 overtime victory against the Chicago Bulls on March 26, 2001, George McCloud dished out 22 assists for the Nuggets!
Although the 22 assists don’t represent the franchise record for most assists in a game (Fat Lever holds that record with the 23 dimes he dished out on April 21, 1989), it was a remarkable performance for McCloud, who was nearing the end of his 12-year career. McCloud would retire following the subsequent 2001-02 campaign.
