Denver Nuggets

Get Healthy

There’s not much else you can say about the Denver Nuggets when Emmanuel Mudiay, Jusuf Nurkic, Danilo Gallinari and Wilson Chandler are all sitting on the sidelines. Chandler’s season-ending injury hasn’t been news for awhile now, but those four are probably the four most important players on the roster right now.

Okay, so maybe the argument can be made that Will Barton and/or Nikola Jokic belong in that conversation somewhere, but the point still stands: in a rebuilding year, the Nuggets want their franchise point guard and center back on the floor sooner rather than later.

Until the time comes when the Nuggets’ most important formative players are back on the floor, every success and failure will have to be taken with a grain of salt.
