Summary

Nikola Jokic & Jamal Murray will close every game for the Denver Nuggets. Same almost certainly applies for Aaron Gordon. But in their win over the Timberwolves, the Nuggets closed with Peyton Watson and Tim Hardaway Jr., instead of the usually steady Christian Braun and struggling newcomer, Cam Johnson. The DNVR Nuggets podcast breaks down the pros and cons of having a versatile closing lineup. Plus, could Peyton Watson become Jaden McDaniels? What we know, think, and have yet to learn about the Denver Nuggets. And Carmelo Anthony interviews Nikola Jokic.
