Denver -- Arron Afflalo's jumper with 18.4 seconds left in overtime gave Denver the lead Monday and the Nuggets hung on to clip the Sacramento Kings 112-109.

The Kings' Kevin Martin missed a potential game-tying jumper and a free throw by Denver's Chauncey Billups then sealed the victory with under a second to play.

Kenyon Martin finished with 24 points, Billups had 23, Ty Lawson 15 and Nene 14 for the Nuggets, who played without injured all-star Carmelo Anthony.

Spencer Hawes had 23 points and Martin totaled 22 for the Kings, who have lost 10 of their last 11 games.
