A former Penn Stater produced at a high level in just his second-career NBA start.

The last time Pickett earned a triple-double was with Penn State during his 2022-23 season, in which he notched 15 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds against Butler on Nov. 14, 2022.

Pickett has started both of the last two Nuggets games and has made a case to see increased minutes once the playoffs come around.
