It’s a positive dilemma, but it’s a dilemma nevertheless.
The 2019-20 Nuggets roster is the deepest in head Michael Malone’s tenure and arguably in franchise history. Finding minutes to satisfy a talented group of players won’t be easy and Malone was blunt in providing his perspective of the situation.
“Do you want to be a part of winning team, or do you want to get numbers?,” he asked rhetorically.
Buoyed by the addition of Jerami Grant, the Nuggets are at least two deep in every position on the roster. In the case of small forward, the team has four legitimate players who could make their case to start on opening night in 11 days.
