The Denver Nuggets had a good year in the 2018-19 season, but they’ll be looking to take the next step during 2019-20. Nikola Jokic, Paul Millsap and other fixture players will give them solid performances up to their standards, but there are other players outside of that group that need to step up to help the team get to the next level next year. Some may be going into contract years, or the team may be looking to move them if they don’t perform up to snuff.
The Western Conference is going to be a dogfight at the top for the top couple of seeds.
