One defensive gaffe from Tuesday night's win over the Knicks represented the Nuggets' current defensive shortcomings that have seen Denver fall to the fringes of the league's top-10 in defense.
Emmanuel Mudiay darted up the floor with a little over a minute remaining looking for some revenge. With the Knicks trailing 111-105 and in dire need of a basket, he crossed Pepsi Center’s midcourt line and called his own number. Mudiay motioned for Noah Vonleh to clear out of the paint, ensuring that the entire left side of the floor was…...

Needing someone to step into the starting lineup with Gary Harris nursing a shoulder injury, Nuggets coach Michael Malone turned to trusted sixth man Will Barton on Nov. 11 against the Magic. Why?

HOUSTON — Professional athletes tend to be routine oriented, and NBA players are no different. From pregame meals to naps after shootaround, certain music before games or a specific warm-up routine, players prefer to stick to a strict schedule. For 58 games this season, Emmanuel Mudiay and Darrell Arthur had their own pregame routine. During player introductions and occasionally in warmups, the two Dallas natives channeled their inner Michael Jackson…...
My first day on the Nuggets’ beat was June 25, 2015 — draft night. As the Denver Nuggets selected Emmanuel Mudiay seventh overall, former Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson surfaced in an online video smoking hookah and predicted he’d be traded to Sacramento to reunite with former coach George Karl. The stunt proved to be the last straw for a Nuggets organization that had…...
DENVER — The Denver Nuggets, Dallas Mavericks and New York Knicks have agreed to a three-team trade that sends Devin Harris to Denver, Emmanuel Mudiay to New York and Doug McDermott to Dallas.

Millsap hosted his teammates and coaches for a get together as the Eagles defeated Tom Brady and Co. “He has a big house,” Nikola Jokic said. An afternoon spent watching the big game represented a couple hours of relaxation during what can be a…...
Since Dec. 18, Barton is averaging 4.8 assists per game. That's second on the team behind Nikola Jokic. Barton has done an admirable job of setting his teammates up. At the same time, he's struggled to get himself going. In his last 14 games, he's averaging 11.6 points on 35.9 percent shooting.
With the trade deadline approaching, the Denver Nuggets have one obvious need. They can't afford to stand pat at the deadline like they did a year ago.
The effects of a shortened rotation finally seemed to catch up with the Nuggets in their 107-102 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. Three days after watching his team shoot 26.2 percent in the second half of a disappointing home loss, Malone told his team in a "State of the Union" address that he plans to scrap the "seven and a half man" rotation he'd been riding and lean on his bench more beginning Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns.
Harrison Wind and Allie Monroy breakdown the weekend ahead for the Denver Nuggets as they face off against the Philadelphia 76ers and the Phoenix Suns. They also discuss Trey Lyles’ performance as of late and whether or not the Nuggets rotation will continue to change....
Backup point guard Emmanuel Mudiay went through shootaround Tuesday morning and is listed as probable for a game with the Utah Jazz , but the 21-year-old is not assured a spot in Michael Malone's rotation whether he returns, after missing the past four games with a right ankle sprain.
"That game should have ended in regulation," Nuggets coach Michael Malone said on Altitude TV's post-game broadcast. "We had our chances to win it."
The Denver Nuggets finally got a road win. It’d been close to three weeks since the Nuggets won away from Pepsi Center, but they finally accomplished that feat again by beating the Orlando Magic 103-89 Friday.
