Nuggets 2023-2024 Season
The Nuggets return pretty much the same team that won the NBA Finals in five games, with the biggest departure being Bruce Brown's exit for Indiana in free agency; the biggest addition being Justin Holiday from the Dallas Mavericks. Denver finished last season 53-29, which was only the fourth-best record in the NBA.
That is because the East was weak and remains that way, while the competition out West most definitely got tougher. Finishing first overall is still the goal, and as we learned with Miami going from a No. 8 seed to the finals, the postseason is a whole different animal. But if the Nuggets stay healthy, their status as defending champs certainly makes team the team to beat.
