Denver Nuggets big man J.J. Hickson crashed the glass and, in the process, helped his teammates crash the party at Oracle Arena.

When Hickson grabbed a career-high 24 rebounds in Wednesday night’s victory over the Golden State Warriors, it marked the first time in six years that a Denver player reached that mark.

Marcus Camby had 24 rebounds against the Utah Jazz on Jan. 17, 2008.

“J.J Hickson was a monster on the boards,” Nuggets coach Brian Shaw said.

Hickson also came up big defensively in the game’s final minute. After a defensive switch left him guarding Warriors guard Stephen Curry near the top of the key, he stole the ball and scored at the other end.

About 24 seconds later, Hickson grabbed another key offensive rebound, giving him 23 boards on the night. Fittingly, he corralled rebound No. 24 on Golden State’s final miss, and the Nuggets dribbled out the clock an a big road victory.

“It was a great game for him,” Nuggets forward Wilson Chandler said. “I thought he would end up with 30.”
