NBA: What All 30 Teams Should Be Thankful For In 2015-16

9 of 31

Denver Nuggets

What They’re Thankful For: Emmanuel Mudiay 

The Denver Nuggets finally got rid of Ty Lawson this summer. Luckily for them, they had Emmanuel Mudiay, whom they drafted at No. 7 in the 2015 NBA Draft, to fall back on. Mudiay has now taken over the reins in Denver and he has the key to the car – yes, all the clichés.

Mudiay has shown some promise this season, even if some of his advanced numbers aren’t great – only sports a 9.5 PER this season. Though, the future is bright for both Mudiay and Denver.
