The Denver Nuggets look to bounce back from an injury prone season where they finished 36-46, 11th in the Western Conference. Denver missed the playoffs for the first-time since the 2002-03′ season where they ended up with the third-overall pick in the draft.

Denver will be getting back key players such as Danilo Gallinari, JaVale McGee, Nate Robinson, and J.J. Hickson while other players such as Ty Lawson, Wilson Chandler, and Darrell Arthur missed portions of the season.

We will also see if the Nuggets are more comfortable under second-year head coach Brian Shaw‘s offense where Kenneth Faried and Timofey Mozgov took off in the final two months of the season.
