Welcome back to the latest edition of the Nuggets Ink podcast, where our beat writer Bennett Durando and sports editor Matt Schubert are back to discuss the latest buzz around the team. One of the hottest topics on the agenda is the potential arrival of Russell Westbrook in free agency and what that could mean for the Mile High city.
It's no secret that Westbrook is a fan favorite and his addition to the Nuggets roster would undoubtedly bring a level of excitement to the team. But the big question on everyone's mind is whether the 36-year-old still has enough left in the tank to help take the Nuggets back to the NBA Finals. And if so, who would be the ideal teammate to pair with him on the second unit?
Another topic up for discussion is the strength of the Nuggets' starting five this season. With the loss of KCP, have they taken a step back? Or has their depth improved compared to last year? These are important factors to consider as the team continues to make strides towards their ultimate goal.
Unfortunately, the Nuggets have also faced some setbacks with rookie DaRon Holmes II suffering a ruptured Achilles tendon in his very first Summer League game. This injury not only affects Holmes but also impacts the team's plans moving forward. But it's not all doom and gloom, as there were still plenty of positives to take away from the Nuggets' performances in Las Vegas.
In other news, the Paris Olympics are right around the corner and the question on everyone's mind is who will bring home a medal for the Nuggets? Will it be Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure, both players have the talent and determination to make their country and fans proud.
