The Denver Nuggets have completed their dominant playoff run by winning the 2023 NBA Finals. Finals MVP Nikola Jokic was the star of the show, capping off one of the most impressive individual playoff runs in recent history. While the Nuggets showed they are a great team, it would not have been possible without being led by Head Coach Michael Malone.
Michael Malone has proven to be a premier coach in the NBA. Before beginning his Denver run in 2015, Malone was the Head Coach of a struggling Sacramento Kings team. Malone finished his career in Sacramento with a 39-67 record through 106 games, prominently on the 2013-14 team led by Demarcus Cousins, Rudy Gay, and Isaiah Thomas.
