The Denver Nuggets shooting guard Jordan Hamilton has been earning the trust from head coach Brian Shaw of late. He is now playing around 17 minutes per game, and he is making the most of his minutes. Hamilton is averaging 8 points per game and is shooting .400 from the point land.

Jordan Hamilton has come a long way considering that he barely played his first two seasons. Now, he is becoming a major difference maker for the Nuggets off the bench, and is only going to get better. Coach Shaw seems to really like him and Hamilton could see his minutes to continue to grow as long as he keeps his solid play up. The Nuggets bench is one of the best in the NBA, and Jordan Hamilton is certainly a reason for that.
