11. Denver Nuggets

By: Lucas Kochevar

​      The Denver Nuggets come into the season as one of the more sneaky teams in the NBA. They also had one of the best off season's too. The Nuggets were able to sign PF Paul Millsap to pair him alongside rising star Nikola Jokic. This front court should carry the Nuggets to the playoffs. The Nuggets will grow into a very competitive team with young wings. This is the projected starting lineup

PG: Jamal Murray 
SG: Gary Harris 
SF: Wilson Chandler
PF: Paul Millsap
C: Nikola Jokic

6th Man: Will Barton

       The PG position is a hole right now in the team as they are both young, inexperienced guys in Emmanual Mudiay and Jamal Murray. Murray had a good rookie campaign last year. If he improves his playmaking ability then he should be a very solid option. The SG spot has Gary Harris there and he is a very good scorer there. The defense is a concern for him as he is a smaller guard. The SF job is by Wilson Chandler. Chandler is a very good scorer as well. He has replaced Danillo Galinari and should be a good option this  year. The PF is going to be Paul Millsap. Millsap is a fantastic option as he was for the Hawks last year. The backup is Kenneth Faried and he should be on the trade block right now. The center is Nikola Jokic and he is a stud. He can literally do everything that a center should not be able to do. He will be in the league for years.
