Marc Stein points out in his latest Substack article that the Denver Nuggets media day is poised to be one of the most compelling across the league.

Alongside discussions about Jamal Murray’s new extension, the media day is anticipated to cover a range of significant topics.

One key area of focus will be the potential contribution of Russell Westbrook and how his presence might impact the team, given his current stage in his career.

Additionally, there is expected to be considerable attention on coach Michael Malone’s rumored dissatisfaction with the Nuggets’ front office.

This frustration reportedly stems from the team’s loss of important players like Bruce Brown and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to free agency in consecutive summers, a situation that could be a major talking point.
