Will Barton has been one of the most underrated and under the radar players in the NBA to the average basketball fan over recent years, but he has become a sixth man extraordinaire and quietly one of the better wing players in the league for the Denver Nuggets. He was off to a fast start [...]

Will Barton is going to be out of action for some time. After being carted off the court during the Denver Nuggets’ win over the Phoenix Suns, the swingman had an MRI and was diagnosed with a strained groin, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania: [tweet https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1054126220923801602] Indefinite timetables are always scary-sounding. This one is no [...]

Isaiah Thomas signed a one-year, $2 million deal to be with the Nuggets this off-season after struggling through a rough season that saw him miss a good chunk of games, struggle to get his feel and quickness back while recovering from a hip injury and ultimately being traded. Thomas has not shown the ability to [...]

The Denver Nuggets’ have failed to make the postseason for the past five years. Isaiah Thomas doesn’t see that drought reaching Year No. 6. Sitting alongside Jamal Murray, Thomas made a pretty definitive, yet off-handed, statement about how the Nuggets are going to make the playoffs this season: [tweet https://twitter.com/nuggets/status/1033114000362430465] I mean, you have to [...]

A second back surgery is not going to stop Michael Porter Jr. from trying to return very early into—perhaps even for the start of—the Denver Nuggets’ regular-season schedule.

According to ESPN.com’s Jonathan Givony, the Chicago Bulls, Boston Celtics, Dallas Mavericks, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, New York Knicks and Orlando Magic are all trying [...]

The Nuggets have virtually no cap space or ability to improve their roster this season with their current $106 million payroll already being over the salary cap of about $102 million. That means the Nuggets want to shed some salary, and there is one guy on their roster who has seemingly been on the trade [...]

Nikola Jokic’s agent, Misko Raznatovic, recently gave an interview with Blic Sport and didn’t mince words on the subject of his client’s potential extension with the Denver Nuggets: The 23-year-old better get one, or else. Okay, he didn’t really say that. But he might as well have. Here’s the translated version of his comments courtesy [...]

Will Barton wants to stay with the Denver Nuggets—which makes sense. They helped salvage his career after he came over from the Portland Trail Blazers as part of the Arron Afflalo trade. He’s since morphed into one of the NBA’s most plucky bench contributors, even garnering some Sixth Man of the Year consideration over each [...]

As if there wasn’t enough widespread change across the NBA this season with the league’s transition to Nike as the major apparel sponsor, a few teams are going to mix up their look for the 2018-19 season.
