Welcome back to the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast! In this episode, beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert come together to discuss some exciting news - the potential arrival of Russell Westbrook to Denver in free agency. As the rumors swirl, the duo delves into some intriguing topics surrounding the star player's potential impact on the Nuggets.
One of the main questions on everyone's mind is whether Westbrook, at almost 36 years old, still has enough left in the tank to help lead the Nuggets back to the NBA Finals. It's no secret that he would be a fan favorite in the Mile High City, but can he truly contribute to the team's success? And if so, who would be the ideal teammate to complement his skills on the second unit?
But it's not all about Westbrook. The Nuggets have had some changes in their starting lineup, most notably the loss of KCP. Has this affected the team's overall performance? On the other hand, have they become deeper and more versatile with their new additions? These are important questions to consider as the Nuggets continue to evolve.
Unfortunately, the team has also faced some setbacks, such as the injury to rookie DaRon Holmes II. He ruptured his Achilles tendon in his very first Summer League game, leaving many wondering how this will impact Denver's plans moving forward. And speaking of Summer League, the Nuggets' performances in Las Vegas have provided some valuable insights. Tune in to hear Durando and Schubert's takeaways from the games.
In other news, the Paris Olympics are just around the corner. As two of the Nuggets' top players, Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are expected to represent their countries on the international stage. But who has a better chance of bringing home a medal? The debate is on!
