15 players you forgot suited up for the Denver Nuggets

10. Richard Jefferson (2017-18)
Out of everyone on this list, Richard Jefferson was the most recent to play for the Nuggets, but his playing time was extremely limited and he primarily served as a veteran locker room presence for the team.
Jefferson’s best years were with the Nets early in his career, with whom he averaged 18.9 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game on .477/.345/.783 splits in his six seasons with the team following his rookie year. He also led his team in scoring twice during this period.

Frankly, there isn’t a lot to say about Jefferson’s play with the Nuggets. He had a few nice plays as shown above, but his two best games were a six-point, one-rebound outing against the Warriors on Nov. 4, 2017, and a six-point, three-rebound, one-steal game against the San Antonio Spurs on Jan. 13, 2018.
