Nikola Jokic and Jonas Valanciunas are the perfect duo to keep the elbow-oriented offense running.
The Denver Nuggets take a rather unique approach to designing their offense. While many teams play through guards and wings, Denver's offense flows through center Nikola Jokic, who makes a living at the elbows and orchestrates accordingly.
By acquiring Jonas Valanciunas, the Nuggets finally have a player who can help keep the offense running in its ideal manner when Jokic is off the court.
