15. Denver Nuggets

Emmanuel Mudiay is my NBA Rookie of the Year pick and I’ll be tuning in to see him prove me right. But he’s the only Denver Nugget that I actually care about. I wish Coach Mike Malone the best. After all, he did get the Sacramento Kings, of all teams, to play defense, so it’ll be interesting to see what he can get out of these Nuggets.

But I’m not curious enough to care, even if they do have a handful of exciting players and potential the Rookie of the Year.
