The Denver Nuggets were one of the most intriguing teams entering summer league due to the presence of No. 7 pick Emmanuel Mudiay. Mudiay was a top high school recruit but skipped college to play one year in China before entering the NBA Draft.
The Nuggets opened summer league play on Friday, July 10, against Atlanta, and I made a point to grab a front row seat for the game. You can imagine my surprise when I looked up from my phone and saw none other than Oleksiy Pecherov, ex-Washington Wizard, standing before me.
