Six-time NBA All-Star DeMar DeRozan is headed to Denver, giving the Nuggets another proven scorer and playmaker as they look to compete for a championship.

The 37-year-old veteran chose Denver after also drawing interest from the Miami Heat, Washington Wizards and New Orleans Pelicans. Denver made a strong push to bring DeRozan aboard, emphasizing how his offensive sk

The Denver Nuggets enter the offseason facing a harsh financial reality that could dramatically reshape the roster around superstar Nikola Jokic. When team president Josh Kroenke recently said “everything is on the table” except a Jokic trade, the comment sent a clear message throughout the organization: no one besides the three-time MVP is untouchable. That includes longtime core pieces Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon, both of whom have surfaced in league trade speculation as

For the Denver Nuggets, success has created a new kind of pressure. After establishing themselves as one of the NBA’s most complete teams in recent years, the Nuggets are no longer chasing validation—they’re defending a standard. And that shift brings its own challenges. Continuity remains their biggest strength. The core rotation is largely intact, and the chemistry that fueled deep postseason success hasn’t gone anywhere.

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon suffered a setback with his right hamstring during Friday night’s 102–100 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. Gordon had recently returned from a hamstring injury before aggravating the same area in the win. Despite the re-injury, Nuggets head coach David Adelman expressed optimism about Gordon’s condition.

The Denver Nuggets opened the NBA season with strong momentum and have remained near the top of the Western Conference standings. However, that success has been tested following a knee injury to three-time MVP Nikola Jokić. With Denver heavily dependent on Jokić and Jamal Murray, concerns have grown about how long the team can sustain its performance without its star center. Jokić suffered a knee hyperextension during a late-December matchup against the Miami Heat. The injury

Brandon Miller scored 23 points to lead the Charlotte Hornets to a convincing 110–87 victory over an injury-depleted Denver Nuggets team on Sunday night in Denver. Charlotte jumped out early and never looked back, handing Denver one of its most lopsided losses of the season. Tidjane Salaun provided a strong spark off the bench with 13 points and 11 rebounds, while rookie center Ryan Kalkbrenner added 17 points and six boards. Collin Sexton finished with 14 points and five ass

WASHINGTON — Peyton Watson poured in a career-best 35 points Thursday night, powering the injury-depleted Denver Nuggets to a 107–97 win over the Washington Wizards. Jamal Murray chipped in 24 points as Denver snapped a two-game skid and avoided its first three-game losing streak of the season. Jonas Valančiūnas, playing his first game after missing 11 contests with a calf strain, finished with 16 points, as did Aaron Gordon. The Nuggets continued to play without Nikola Jokić

Julian Strawther recorded a season-high 20 points as the short-handed Denver Nuggets held off the Milwaukee Bucks for a 102–100 victory Friday night in Milwaukee. Denver built a commanding 23-point lead before surviving a late surge by the Bucks. The game was marred by injuries to key players on both sides. Milwaukee star Giannis Antetokounmpo exited with a right calf injury, while Denver’s Aaron Gordon left after straining his right hamstring. Both players had previously mis
