One player that will likely be staying in Denver during the offseason is Nikola Jokic, who put together arguably the best season of his career. Because of this, Jokic was a finalist for the 2024-25 Kia NBA MVP award which was announced on Wednesday night ahead of Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Denver Nuggets disappointingly lost by 32 points in Game 7 to the OKC Thunder and will need to make major changes to be a title-contender in the 2025-26 NBA season. We have a full offseason plan to help them achieve that goal.

They weren't that thin for the Denver Nuggets. They were as thick as Nikola Jokić. The best player in the world had the 68-win Thunder on the ropes multiple times. Jokić outplayed presumptive MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in a second-round series that went seven games but ended in an OKC blowout.

Stephen Curry missed four consecutive games in the second round due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain, contributing to the Warriors' elimination by the Timberwolves. Jayson Tatum suffered an Achilles injury during the Celtics' series against the Knicks, sidelining him for Game 5 and 6.
