5. Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Michael Porter Jr.

The Denver Nuggets’ trio is one of the newest additions to this list and I wasn’t sure if Michael Porter Jr. qualified as a legit No. 3, but he’s just so overwhelming on the offensive end and his ceiling is too high not to accept him as a candidate.

Nikola Jokic is coming off an NBA MVP season and two playoffs ago, Jamal Murray put on an absolute show as the Nuggets made a run to the Western Conference Finals. An injury cost Murray last postseason, but the sky is the limit for this trio in Denver.

If the stars align, there’s no question that this trio could help the Nuggets win a championship sooner rather than later. But, especially to get through a difficult Western Conference, a lot has to fall their way.
