Denver Nuggets Mock Draft

National Basketball Association Mock Draft • 2026 Season

Denver Nuggets Draft Analysis

Heading into the draft, the Denver Nuggets are in a strong position, boasting a well-rounded roster led by MVP Nikola Jokić. However, they have a pressing need for additional perimeter scoring and athleticism on the wings, especially with potential aging concerns for players like Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Adding youthful talent who can contribute immediately and develop alongside their core is essential for maintaining their championship window and deepening their playoff rotation.

Cameron Boozer stands out as a potential target for the Nuggets, given his proficiency as a double-double machine and ability to stretch the floor as a modern power forward. His high basketball IQ and work ethic make him a perfect fit alongside Jokić, as they could create an unstoppable frontcourt dynamic. Alternatively, Kingston Flemings, as the top point guard in this class, could provide Denver with a dynamic playmaker who excels in transition and can elevate their offensive game. Lastly, Nate Ament's scoring prowess as a big wing could address the Nuggets' need for perimeter shooting while also adding depth to their wing rotation.
