NBA: Denver 110, Sacramento 83

DENVER, Jan. 5 (UPI) -- Al Harrington paced a big game for the Denver bench Wednesday, scoring 15 points while pushing the Nuggets to a 110-83 win over Sacramento.

With the game in hand and considering the grueling nature of this year's NBA schedule, the Denver starters were given lots of rest. None of the starters played more than 22 minutes and the Denver substitutes produced 62 of the team's 110 points.
