If there’s one aspect of the off-season that I’m supremely interested in seeing what the Denver Nuggets do now that Tim Connelly is gone, it’s the NBA Draft. Connelly has been in charge of the Nuggets draft classes since 2014, and it was by far his best trait as Denver’s lead decision maker. The Nuggets had far more hits than misses, and Connelly had a type: skilled shooters with a high basketball IQ. Now, with Calvin Booth presumably in charge, how will Denver’s draft process evolve and change?
In the 2022 NBA Draft class, there are several prospects in the second round that have the potential to fill interesting, unique roles at the next level.
