The Denver Nuggets sorely missed Ty Lawson when the point guard missed about three weeks of action with a broken rib. But since he returned to the starting lineup, the former Tar Heel has dominated his opponents. In his first game back, he went for 31 points and 11 assists, which was encored by a 30 point, 17 assist performance two games later in a win against the Lakers. (GoHeels.com)
