Denver Nuggets: Two players that need to step up

The first half of the 2018-19 NBA season brought us so many surprises and dark horse players, but now it’s time to buckle down and get ready for the second half. We were treated to big performances from players like Malik Beasley, Monte Morris, Torrey Craig and countless others as the Nuggets were decimated by injuries time and time again. This is a team that has had a combined total of over 82 games missed by starters due to injury. Denver also has had the most total games missed due to injury in the NBA.

However, we’ve had players who aren’t living up to their hype so far, as well as players who still have a lot to prove this season.
