Nuggets name Ben Tenzer executive VP of basketball operations, add Jon Wallace to front office

More than a month after their season ended and more than two months after firing general manager Calvin Booth, the Nuggets have finally restocked their front office.

Ben Tenzer has been appointed as Denver’s executive vice president of basketball operations, multiple league sources told The Denver Post on Monday. The Nuggets are also hiring Iowa Wolves general manager Jon Wallace to take over as executive vice president of player personnel.

The duo will collaborate to oversee Denver’s basketball ops on a day-to-day basis, reporting to team president and KSE vice chairman Josh Kroenke. Tenzer finished the 2024-25 season as the team’s interim general manager after the Nuggets fired Booth with three games remaining in the regular season this April, along with head coach Michael Malone.
