The Denver Nuggets just had a heartbreaking loss in overtime. D.J. Augustin made sure it didn't happen again.

Augustin scored Denver's last eight points of the extra period, including two free throws with 0.9 seconds left, and the Nuggets beat the Dallas Mavericks 116-114 on Sunday.

Augustin finished with 12 [url=http://www.officialsabresteamshop.com/Womens_Youth_Zemgus_Girgensons_Jersey... points to help the Nuggets get payback after an overtime loss in Dallas on Feb. 26. They had another OT loss just two days earlier, when the Brooklyn Nets beat them 121-120.

''Coming into this game we were like 1-4 in overtime, so getting this win was definitely huge, especially against a good team like Dallas,'' rookie guard Emmanuel Mudiay said.

Kenneth Faried had 25 points and a season-high 20 rebounds for the Nuggets, who rallied from four http... down in the last 10 seconds of regulation. Will Barton added 20 points.

Dirk Nowitzki scored 30 points and Deron Williams had 17 for the Mavericks, who have lost two straight.

''We could have won this game a [url=http://www.officialcoyotesproshop.com/Womens_Youth_Oliver_Ekman-larsson_Jer... Ekman-Larsson Jersey[/url]million ways,'' Nowitzki said. ''It's a tough one.''

Augustin has given the Nuggets a spark since coming from Oklahoma City in a trade Feb. 18. Sunday was his ninth game and the second time in a week he has helped Denver pull out a victory. He scored 22 points in the fourth to beat the Lakers on Wednesday before Sunday's heroics.

''Overtime, it was the D.J. show,'' Mudiay said. ''Just let him go and [url=http://www.officialcoyotesproshop.com/Womens_Youth_Shane_Doan_Jersey]http:/... going to ride with him.''

The game was tied when Williams missed a layup with 16.8 seconds left in overtime. After a timeout, Augustin drove the lane and was fouled by Raymond Felton. He calmly sank both free throws, and Mudiay blocked Wesley Matthews' 3-pointer at the buzzer.

''The play was for me to come off and curl to the corner, but Raymond Felton overplayed me so I just popped back, (Mudiay) hit me with a pass and I tried to drive and create something,'' Augustin said.
