It’s a sight hard to miss at Denver Nuggets games.
Whether it’s after a big play like a clutch three or a more mundane one like made free throw in the third quarter, Juancho Hernangómez is off the bench doing whatever he can to support his teammates.
It might be jumping up with a celebratory dance or a being the first player to give his teammate a high five – Hernangómez is always there.
On Tuesday night, the third-year forward’s teammates returned the favor.
With Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Trail Blazers already in hand, Nuggets head coach Michael Malone gave some of his deep reserves some much-deserved playing time at the 2:29 mark in the fourth quarter.
