It’s never fun when your season ends in a sweep, but for the Denver Nuggets, there’s a lot to be optimistic about. The tail end of the season was plagued by injuries, including a devastating one to Jamal Murray, and this inevitably played a big part in the team not advancing past the Western Conference Semi-Finals despite their championship aspirations. However, while this season did not go as planed, the team still has all of the pieces that lead many to believe they could go all the way prior to Murray’s season-ending ACL injury in April. This optimism seems to be shared by the players, as many of them took to social media to not only express regret that the season ended the way it did, but to look forward to what the future for this team holds.
