Throughout the summer, fans and analysts have focused on the quiet offseason that the Denver Nuggets have enjoyed. With the only roster departures being players that weren’t in the team’s playoff rotation, there wasn’t much to discuss when it came to roster overhaul. However, the Nuggets made one of the best additions in the entire league this summer when it came to the addition of Jerami Grant.
Few players fit Denver’s style of play and timeline better than Grant, who projects to begin the season as the team’s backup power forward. It isn’t just what Grant brings to the table as an uber-athletic, oversized wing defender and 3-point shooter, it’s also what he unlocks for head coach Michael Malone when it comes to lineup versatility.
