The Denver Nuggets are arguably one of the most underrated teams in the league. They have the reigning back-to-back NBA MVP in Nikola Jokic and have unfortunately been bit by the injury bug lately.
However, there is little doubt that the Nuggets can be a force to reckon with when fully healthy. Jokic is about to get his two best teammates back in the lineup next season - Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. - while the front office has made significant moves to improve the roster.
For starters, they extended Jokic for five more years and signed him to the biggest deal in NBA history at $264 million. They acquired Bruce Brown from Brooklyn and also swapped Monte Morris and Will Barton for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Ish Smith from Washington.
