Harrison Wind: Asked Paul Millsap how big of a factor playing alongside Nikola Jokic was in his decision to re-sign in Denver: “I mean, the guy’s just throwing cheeseburgers. Free cheeseburgers. Just grab as many as you can. Playing with a guy like that, it’s unbelievable.”

Houston pulled to 87-79 on a dunk by Jae’Sean Tate with 5:33 left in the third but the Nuggets closed the period with a 19-4 run and maintained a double-digit lead the rest of the way. Paul Millsap touched off the flurry with a 3-pointer off a feed from Jokic, whose 18 assists represented a career best. “He’s a great player, a great talent,” said Millsap, who finished with 19 points. “You always know when you’re open, he’s going to hit you.” Jokic said he learned to read the floor for passing lanes early on. “I just play like that, trying to find the open guy,” he explained. “My coaches gave me the freedom to do that.”

Michael Singer: Paul Millsap: “I don’t feel like I made the right basketball plays (last year).” Said he’s made an emphasis on making himself available in the offense, helping any way he can this year.
