26. Denver Nuggets – Jaden Springer, G, Tennessee

The Denver Nuggets would be a good, soft landing spot for any raw prospects. This is a team that has its eyes on winning a championship sooner rather than later, but still one that needs to keep an eye on the future. Jaden Springer would be a fit.

Springer is the other high-profile prospect out of Tennessee that will likely be a first-round pick, depending on how his pre-draft process evolves. Even though he’s not a complete prospect, Springer is a player to keep an eye on. Especially if he lands in a good developmental franchise.

The Nuggets would be a good fit for Springer and a nice landing spot for a player that likely needs a year or two of learning and honing raw skills.
