As the Denver Nuggets begin preparations for the 2022 NBA Draft, they are rarely surprised by new information. The Nuggets are notorious for doing elite scouting and prep work for each draft cycle, and it’s why they often hone in on players that are younger, less scouted, and off the beaten track. Sometimes, a gem drops into their lap with somebody like Jamal Murray or Michael Porter Jr., players they expected to be picked higher but had a surprising fall. Sometimes, they target a guy that others see as a bit of a reach like Nikola Jokiu0107 at 41, Monte Morris at 51, and Bones Hyland at 26, only for those players to immediately exceed expectations upon arrival.
