Paul Millsap hears all the old man jokes.
Get them out now before the Nuggets power forward dunks on your punchline.
A highly skilled professional his age in the “real world” is considered an up-and-comer. In the NBA, the 34-year-old Millsap represents a small fraction of ageless wonders. He began the weekend as one of 14 players in the league his age or older to have appeared in at least 10 games this season. A theme not lost on Denver’s core of young talent unafraid to verbally burn their veteran leader.
Of course, it’s all in love.
