The Denver Nuggets were one of those unfortunate teams that lost their 2021 playoff series largely to a key injury. Without Jamal Murray, their MVP Nikola Jokic couldn’t do it all. In fact, their offense was so weak they lost the conference semifinals 0-4 to the Suns.
This offseason, the Nuggets have welcomed Jeff Green to their team as a lethal weapon beyond the arc. Plus, Marcus Howard’s re-signing and Michael Porter’s maximum extension were other welcome gestures. We therefore expect a lot from them for the coming season.
The key figures of the Mile High City
20 octobre vs Suns : The Nuggets will begin their campaign against the same team that angered them with the “Suns in Four” chants during the playoffs. Everyone remembers the tension between the opposing supporters and also that face-to-face between Nikola Jokic and Devin Booker that erupted during Game 4. Considering all of this, their game will be a must.
The Nuggets don’t have one Game on Christmas Eve and in fact they’re having a pretty easy first month. They would like Jamal Murray (who was injured on April 12) to complete his ACL rehab as soon as possible to stay in the Top 4 in the world championship.
15 janvier vs Lakers : Although the Nuggets are ending their season against the Lakers, their first clash will take place three months after the start of the season. Just in case Anthony Davis starts as a center it will be great to see him weigh in against Joker.
