Nuggets Must Prioritize Depth This Summer

Nuggets Must Prioritize Depth This Summer

Published 10 hours ago
Description

Denver Nuggets may trade Jamal Murray or Aaron Gordon this summer, but they need to prioritize proven depth over future draft picks—especially since Nikola Jokic is still elite and they lack cap flexibility or high-value assets. With a thin pipeline of young talent and limited playing time for prospects like DaRon Holmes and Jalen Pickett, the team’s injury-riddled season exposed their lack of true depth. Spencer Jones, a two-way player, got significant minutes, highlighting the roster’s depth issues. Christian Braun’s underwhelming performance may foreshadow a tough contract season. The focus must be on acquiring at least two, ideally three, reliable contributors who can immediately impact the floor—within salary cap constraints. Murray’s decline and a shaky defense against Minnesota underscore the urgency for change.
