Hickson started the second half at center Wednesday against the Bulls.

Analysis:

Hickson was able to start the second half of Wednesday's tilt, despite not recording any minutes in the Nuggets' last two games against Milwaukee and Dallas. Nevertheless, the 27-year-old posted five points, six rebounds, three assists, and a steal within 16 minutes. The center could continue to see similar numbers in the future, however he's still battling for minutes with fellow centers Joffrey Lauvergne and Nikola Jokic.
