MVP: Ty Lawson, Denver
The former Timberwolf (if only for an instant on draft night) made 10 of 11 three-point attempts and scored 37 points for a remade Nuggets team headed for the playoffs. He would have been perfect if he hadn't thrown up a wild buzzer-beating attempt to end the third quarter.
BY THE NUMBERS
13 The Wolves' losing streak, their longest since they lost 16 in a row last season. They haven't won since beating Utah on March 11.
10 Most three-pointers ever made vs. the Wolves by a single player. Lawson's 10 tied the 10 Joe Dumars once made against them.
