The Denver Nuggets are aiming for another championship while currently battling for the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference. Despite having Nikola Jokić—a top player—they might need to make significant changes if they fall short this season. Analyst Eric Pincus suggests that the Nuggets should target Kevin Durant, a former Thunder superstar, to enhance their chances. This would involve trading key depth pieces to bring in Durant, who could pair effectively with Jokić to create a formidable offensive duo.
By the Numbers
- The Nuggets are currently vying for the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference.
- Kevin Durant has played nine seasons for the Oklahoma City Thunder, culminating in an MVP 2014 award.
State of Play
- The Nuggets are stuck in the luxury tax with limited flexibility for roster improvements.
- Denver has lost key veteran players like Bruce Brown Jr. and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope in recent seasons.
What’s Next
If the Nuggets do not secure a title this season, they may aggressively pursue a trade for Durant, potentially reshaping their roster significantly. This could lead to a revamped playoff strategy for the upcoming seasons if successful.
Bottom Line
To enhance their championship dreams, the Nuggets need to consider bold moves, such as acquiring a superstar like Kevin Durant, potentially transforming their competitiveness in the league.
