Billups Burns Hometown Team as Nuggets Win Streak Snapped

Former Denver Nugget Chauncey Billups came back to haunt his former team in his hometown. The Denver native scored 32 points and drew a key offensive foul in the final seconds as the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Nuggets 109-105 at the Pepsi Center last night. In his first game against the Nuggets since being included in the Carmelo Anthony trade last season, Billups hit six three-pointers to help the Clippers snap Denver’s six-game winning streak. Five players scored in double figures for the Nuggets, led by Nene’s 18. But Nene was called for an offensive foul when he tangled with Billups with 18 seconds left and the Nuggets down by two. Danilo Gallinari added 17 points for the Nuggets in the loss. The Nuggets fall to 14-6 on the season. They host Memphis on Tuesday night.
