The NBA draft order was finalized Tuesday with the Detroit Pistons winning the No. 1 overall pick in the lottery.
As for the Nuggets? They’ve been sitting at No. 26, a spot they’ve only selected from once: In 2006 when they picked Auburn center Mamadou N’Diaye. He was with the team for nearly six months — playing zero games — before being traded to the Toronto Raptors.
Hopefully, for Denver’s sake, the second time at No. 26 will be better.
Here’s a look at who national draftniks are thinking will land in Denver.
