DENVER, Colo. – A couple of former Utah Jazzmen collided in the second quarter of Game 5 between the Denver Nuggets and Portland Trail Blazers when Rodney Hood fouled Paul Millsap on a 3-point attempt.
Millsap drained the shot despite Hood’s foul and then made the free throw to complete the four-point play.
The play took place just before the end of the first half. At halftime, the Nuggets led by a considerable margin with a 65-47 advantage.

The series between Portland and Denver was tied at two games apiece going into Game 5.
