Former Michigan State guard Gary Harris is an absolute difference-maker for the Denver Nuggets. Harris has been out since March 11th with a hip injury, returning in Game 6 of a playoff series against the Utah Jazz. Harris immediately came in and, in my opinion, became the best defender on the Nuggets and was tasked with guarding Donovan Mitchell.

At the end of Game 7, the Nuggets needed to stop Donovan Mitchell in order to seal the victory and advance, so they put Harris on Mitchell.

Harris played Mitchell extremely tight and stole the ball from behind on Mitchell, which ultimately sealed the game for the Nuggets.
