As the conference finals’ match ups are set and the NBA is in full rumor mode, let’s address one of Denver’s biggest off season questions. What should the Nuggets do regarding their back-up point guard situation?
Last season, the Nuggets began the year by parting ways with veteran Jameer Nelson. The team decided to go young with only Jamal Murray and Emmanuel Mudiay as the point guard position.
That plan fell apart over the first half of the year due to a lack of stability in the second unit. Tim Connelly and company decided the team needed someone with veteran leadership to back-up Murray.
