A lot of attention has understandably been on Michael Porter Jr. given the scoring and rebounding punch he has provided in recent games as the Denver Nuggets continue to navigate injuries to key starters.
However, Denver wouldn’t have won two of its past three games without the contributions of Malik Beasley, who has scored 40 points over the past three games.
Against the Golden State Warriors last week, Beasley stepped up to the plate and scored 27 points on 9-of-16 shooting from the field and recorded three steals in 39 minutes of action as Denver came back from 19 points down to win in overtime.
