J.R. Smith scores 17 off Nuggets bench
J.R. Smith - G/F - Denver Nuggets
March 31, 2011 - 3:10 AM ET

J.R. Smith hit 8-of-11 shots and a three for 17 points, five boards, four assists and two steals as the Nuggets won their fourth straight game on Wednesday.

They look locked in as the No. 5 seed in the West and Smith seems to be quietly doing all the right things off the Nuggets bench. If you need a somewhat reliable 3-point shooter, he could be your guy. Just keep in mind his touches will take a hit once Arron Afflalo returns from his hamstring injury, which should happen Friday.
