Dwight Howard

C, Los Angeles Lakers

Dwight Howard saw just 16 minutes off the bench in Friday's win over the Nuggets but made the most of his time on the floor, producing 13 points, three rebounds, two steals and two blocks.

Howard made 4-of-5 shots from the field and true to form, made just five of his eight attempts at the line. Despite his limited time, mostly due to fouls (four fouls), Howard was able throw the Nuggets off their rhythm with his two blocks and two steals. The key to the Lakers' success in this game was the strong effort they got from their role-players. Danny Green, who scored just eight points on 3-of-10 shooting, still made a huge impact with a team-high plus-10 in the +/- column.
