Nuggets' Danilo Gallinari drops 20 points with 18 boards

Denver Nuggets forward Danilo Gallinari shot just 2-of-10 from the field in Tuesday's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, but he was able to get to the free throw line at will and finished with 20 points and 18 boards.

What It Means:

He has been in a slump lately and is shooting just 35.3 percent from the field over his last five games. He was still aggressive in this one and hit 16-of-17 free throws. The Nuggets are in desperate need of offense and Gallinari is their top weapon. He should continue to be the focal point of their offense.

Gallinari has been extremely productive this season. His 6.0 nERD ranks 34th. Despite uncharastically low shooting percentages, he's averaging 18.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists. He's hitting just 39 percent of shots, which is a career-low clip. We project him to shoot 43.6 percent from the field over the remainder of the season.
