David Adelman is super proud of how gritty this Nuggets team is and how they're managing to stay in all these games without some of their starters. "This group is just playing their ass off."

How are the Nuggets doing this? They've had injuries across the board. And it totals around $113 million in 2025-26 salary that's sat on the bench for an extended period of time: 🚑 Nikola Jokic: $55.2 million 🚑 Aaron Gordon: $22.8 million 🚑 Cam Johnson: $20.5 million 🚑

Jamal Murray is looking like a LOCK for the All-Star game 🔒 🏹 #JamAllStar🌟

On fire on the boards & beyond the arc 🙂‍↕️

Wilson Chandler will be in the building tonight ⚒️

NIKOLA JOKIC IS FREAKING BACK TONIGHT WATCH OUT NBA 😈😈

The Nuggets just blew out the hottest team in basketball despite being down 3 starters and playing on the second night of a back to back. The ceiling for this team is higher than ever

JOKIC BACK LIKE HE NEVER LEFT 🔥 Got a standing ovation from the Denver crowd after scoring 31 PTS in his return from injury 😤

Finally getting the recognition he deserves

PEYTON WATSON SAID PUT THIS ON A POSTER

20 IN THE 1ST QUARTER FOR JAMAL MURRAY 🔥🏹 #JamAllStar🌟

Oh no. The hits keep on coming in the Nuggets injury department. Just get Jokic and Christian Braun back and now Peyton Watson, playing the best ball of his career, pulls his hamstring. Can’t make it up. It’s been a year from hell on this front.

Feel the worst for Christian Braun and Julian Strawther because they came to play and hit a lot of huge, tough shots… damn

Triple-double 2️⃣0️⃣ for 1️⃣5️⃣

Julian Strawther over his last 10 games: 11.9 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 1.5 AST on 52/39/82 Been a real positive over this stretch of play, especially as one of the Nuggets better athletes and quicker perimeter guys

6MOTY balled out once again 🔥

Missed 16 games, still leads the league 🃏
