Nuggets' Danilo Gallinari: Scores team-high 24 in Sunday's loss

Gallinari scored 24 points (6-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 10-11 FT) while adding four rebounds, two steals and an assist in 35 minutes during Sunday's 105-98 loss to the Grizzlies.

Analysis:

He's looked good in three games since returning from a groin injury, averaging 19.7 points, 6.0 boards, 1.7 three-pointers and 1.0 steals. Staying healthy is always an issue for Gallinari -- he's played more than 59 games just once in the last five seasons -- but if he can avoid his usual strains and sprains, he should be productive down the stretch for a Nuggets squad that doesn't have many other scoring options.
