Stat of the Week: Monte Morris is playoff ready, and the Nuggets will need him

The Denver Nuggets have been through several ups and downs this season. Nikola Jokic took until December 3rd to get going on the season. Jamal Murray went through a midseason lull before sitting out 10 games with a sprained ankle. Paul Millsap missed games. Jerami Grant took a couple of months to get used to Jokic. Gary Harris took decidedly longer than that.

At the beginning of the season, it looked like Monte Morris may be going through a regression himself. Through the first 32 games, the third-year point guard scored in double figures just eight times.
