The Denver Nuggets are in a bit of trouble as of right now. Yes, they are still number one in the Western Conference, but that may not last long.
Sure, they still possess a top five defense in the league, but that will most likely drop off with the loss of their two best defensive players.
The injury bug has plagued Denver and it has hit them like a freight train.
We are not just talking one or two injuries, or an injury to a player who spends the majority of his time in the G League.
