Who should be the Denver Nuggets sixth man?

Denver Nuggets: Facundo Campazzo is one of the most intense players in the NBA
The feistiness of the “Bandito” from Argentina can feel contagious. Facundo Campazzo was frequently used as one of the first substitutes early in the season. However, the emergence of Hyland has significantly cut into his minutes.
Campazzo has shown he can score in the NBA, and he’s been coming on from 3-point range lately (9-22, or 41 percent, in his last five games).
An effective defensive irritant against top scorers, he brings the experience of a player in his 30s. His ability to shoot, invent passing angles, dazzle with the dribble and draw charges keeps the team and home crowd revved.
