Peyton Watson · Even with his team holding an 11-point lead at the time, Peyton Watson saved the day. The Denver Nuggets forward put Steph Curry on his highlight reel as the Golden State Warriors superstar beat Jamal Murray off the dribble and seemed to have a clear path to the rim for an easy fourth quarter layup. That is until a trailing Watson perfectly anticipated Curry’s move and skied high to land an emphatic rejection off the backboard, which preserved Denver’s lead with 2:34 to play. The Warriors ended the game on a 9-0 run, with Watson’s clutch block serving as the ultimate difference maker in his squad’s 112-110 win on April 2, 2023. The 30th overall pick in the draft contributed eight points, five rebounds and three blocks in the winning effort. · State of Mint · State of Mint
