Denver Nuggets’ Scouting Report

The Denver Nuggets are currently the 8th seed in the Western Conference with a record of 25 wins and 31 losses.  They are struggled on the road, though, winning just 10 of their 28 road contests.

Last time out, the Nuggets hosted the Minnesota Timberwolves.  The Wolves came to Denver and defeated the Nuggets 112-99 on February 15th.  Below is a highlight video from that game to give you a glimpse at the Nuggets’ most recent form.

This is a deep team with a young core that should be fun to watch for years to come.  The Nuggets may not be able to hold on and make the playoffs this season, but do not be surprised to see this team only get better.  I suspect the Nuggets build around Nikola Jokic and work their way into a Western Conference powerhouse.
