OMAHA, Neb. — If it was a contest about who missed who more, Nuggets forward Wilson Chandler is certain he knows the winner.
Himself.
“I think I missed them a little bit more than they missed me,” he said.
It was a photo finish.
The Nuggets missed Chandler, who was on the shelf for the entire 2015-16 season after having hip surgery, immensely. Coach Michael Malone had already dreamed of the lineups he could create with the versatile forward. But all of that was thrown out of the window before the regular season began.
Chandler missed his team.
