Denver Nuggets | Nuggets Journal: Analyzing mock draft projections for Denver’s 2024 first-round pick

The Denver Nuggets possess the No. 28 overall pick in the upcoming 2024 NBA Draft, which will take place across two days for the first time this year: June 26-27. If the Nuggets use that first-round pick, who will they take? We react to the recent barrage of mock draft projections here.

Will the Nuggets draft a backup center?

The mock draft: ESPN, Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo

The pick: DaRon Holmes II, Dayton; 6-foot-9, 236 pounds

My take: The most popular Nuggets candidate among internet match-makers, Holmes named Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon as two of the players he looks up to the most at the combine.
