Thursday’s trade deadline was one of the busiest of the Tim Connelly era. When the dust settled, the Nuggets had shipped out three players — Malik Beasley, Juancho Hernangomez and Jarred Vanderbilt, who all went to Minnesota — as part of a four-team trade and inherited four, Keita Bates-Diop, Noah Vonleh, Gerald Green and Jordan McRae. Denver took on McRae…...
Ever since Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez turned down contract extensions prior to the beginning of the regular season, the writing seemed to be on the wall. When the Nuggets were banged up and down a starter or two, Beasley and Hernangomez saw their minutes climb. Beasley logged 39 minutes off the bench in Denver’s 134-131 overtime win in Golden…...
Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez arrived in Denver together as part of a heralded 2016 draft class. The Nuggets selected Beasley 19th overall and Hernangomez 15th that summer. They’ll leave Denver together as well. The Nuggets reportedly agreed to a trade late Tuesday night that will send Beasley, Hernangomez and Jarred Vanderbilt to the Timberwolves in exchange for Shabazz Napier,…...
Twenty four hours before the Nuggets tipped off Friday night in Milwaukee, Michael Malone declare the Denver’s come-from-behind victory over the Utah Jazz as “maybe” the win of the season.

The Nuggets’ best moment of 2019 was four years in the making. Denver clinched its first playoff berth of the Michael Malone era in Denver’s coach’s fourth season on a Monday night in Boston late last year. A few weeks later the Nuggets won the Northwest Division for the first time since 2010. Nikola Jokic then scored 43 points in…...
Down by 15 points at halftime and by 19 early in the third quarter, the Nuggets were trending towards one of their more disappointing losses of the season. Paul Millsap had other ideas. Millsap scored seven-straight points beginning at the 9:11 mark of the third and sprung the Nuggets on a 24-0 run over the next six minutes to take…...
Gary Harris is averaging 37.2 minutes per game over the Nuggets’ current three-game winning streak. That’s too many for Michael Malone. “The greatest challenge I have now is I can’t continue to play Gary Harris 38 minutes a night. I really can’t,” Malone said Tuesday. “Sometimes I get caught in the moment. I’m worried about the Knicks. We’ve got to…...

He subbed into the game at the beginning of the second quarter and was replaced by Juancho Hernangomez with 10:56 remaining in the period. Craig ran up and down the floor four times and didn’t break…...
Here’s a bit of insight into just how much Michael Malone and the Nuggets have relied on their starters this season. The Nuggets’ starting five — Jamal Murray, Gary Harris, Will Barton, Paul Millsap, and Nikola Jokic — is playing on average 20.9 minutes per game.

Everyone take a deep breath. That’s what the Nuggets are saying to each other in the visiting locker room at The Amway Center right now after a narrow 91-87 win over the Orlando Magic. It was an ugly, frustrating, and puzzling night, but a win is a win. Still, the Nuggets have a long way to go. You get the…...
No one would take a mulligan on a 3-0 start, but those who watched the Nuggets closely through three games knew they had a loss coming. That materialized Tuesday night when the Nuggets let a game slip away from them, falling to the Dallas Mavericks 109-106 on their home court. The vaunted bench struggled mightily, and Denver’s starters showed a…...

In 2013 Andre Iguodala chose sacrifice over stats. Say what you want about his exit from Denver after the Nuggets’ first-round playoff loss to the Warriors, but Iguodala’s decision to sign in Golden State and come off the bench changed the arc of his career. Iguodala had been a No. 1 offensive option since high school, college, then as a…...
