Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Also, can we just take a minute to appreciate Christian Braun keeping receipts? Asked what he learned fighting through injury last season, Braun said: “I feel like last year, I learned a ton. I learned a ton about myself — and I learned a ton about a lot of people.” #Nuggets 050

Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Late last week on a podcast, #Nuggets star Nikola Jokic gave the best interview he’s ever done, diving into a ton of things. But the clarity of who he is and how he wants to move through this world stuck with me. I wrote about it here ⬇️ www.dempsandcircumstance.com/p/jokic-cons...dempsandcircumstance.comJokic Considers: At What Price, Fame?On a podcast, Nikola Jokic opened up about the price of fame and trying to keep some privacy while being a megastar in the NBA and across the world. 1618
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Eight unprotected first-round picks exchanged hands this summer in the #NBA. Felt high to me, so I took a stab at why I thought this is now the case: www.dempsandcircumstance.com/p/how-valuab...dempsandcircumstance.comHow Valuable is an Unprotected First-Round Pick Now?Eight first-round picks have changed hands this summer alone as NBA teams are becoming more willing to part ways with the previously untouchable picks. 111
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 10/09/2026A couple of weeks ago on Instagram, I asked a few questions regarding the addition of DeMar DeRozan to the #Nuggets roster. How will he fit? What he has left to give, etc. Here are my answers: www.dempsandcircumstance.com/p/answering-...dempsandcircumstance.comAnswering the DeRozan QuestionsHow will the multiple-time All Star fit with the Nuggets? 050
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 09/09/2026There has been a lot of anxiety around #Nuggets star Nikola Jokic and his contact. I get it. This is why his situation has become a little unnerving to me: www.dempsandcircumstance.com/p/the-sudden...dempsandcircumstance.comThe suddenly-unsettling Jokic contract sagaNuggets superstar center Nikola Jokic has a player option at the end of the upcoming season, and a whole host of suitors trying to pry him away from Denver. 140
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 16/04/2026The #NBA play-in games have been amazing 150
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Good news here: Aaron Gordon and Cameron Johnson are on track to return to action tonight for the #Nuggets vs. the Knicks. Gordon hasn't played since Jan. 23, and has only played in 23 games this season. Keeping him healthy for the balance of the season is paramount. 1100
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 04/03/2026Aaron Gordon getting up shots after #Nuggets practice. He went through drills with the rest of the team today, although the team did not have a contact practice. His return to action is expected soon. Really good to see him out there. 1131
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 08/02/2026#Nuggets Jamal Murray will be in the 3-point contest, adding to his big All-Star weekend 0130
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Through the first half vs. Brooklyn. I’ve loved the Nuggets approach to this game. Taking possessions seriously. Taking the opponent seriously. And as a result, they are getting whatever they want on offense. 050
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Tim Hardaway for Sixth Man of the Year? Why yes. Absolutely. What a season for him so far. #NuggetsSky 1100
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Jamal Murray, Jonas Valanciunas and Peyton Watson are all expected to play tonight vs. Detroit. All three missed the Nuggets’ last game, at Milwaukee. The team didn’t arrive back in Denver until Monday evening due to travel complications from the storm that postponed their game at Memphis on Sunday. 250
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 25/01/2026The Nuggets game today at Memphis has been postponed due to bad weather conditions as a result of the huge storm battering many parts of the US. Buses to get equipment to the arena were not able to make it. 084
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 23/01/2026Like a kid immediately playing with a new toy for their birthday, the Nuggets got Jonas Valanciunas back from injury tonight and went to him early and often for offense. And he delivered. It’s great to have him back for points/rebounds and offensive balance. #NuggetsSky 1101
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 18/01/2026What you are looking at is Peyton Watson’s shot chart heat map. So, where his attempts (and makes) come from. On the left is his full season. On the right is since Dec. 31. This is as dramatic a before & after as you will ever see. There is not a spot on the court that he cannot score from. Unreal! 1185
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 12/01/2026It just keeps getting better for Peyton Watson. He was just named NBA Western Conference Player of the Week. What a season for him. #NuggetsSky 1222
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Excited to co-host The Morning Sprint today with Raj on Altitude Sports Radio 92.5! We’ll talk a bunch about this Nuggets team, their win last night and where they go from here. Check it out from 10am-noon (Mountain) 000
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Jamal Murray has been masterful with his passing in his last 2 games. He is the only player in the NBA this season with consecutive games of 15+ assists. The Nuggets scored 44 points off of his assists tonight meaning including his scoring (22 points) Murray accounted for 66 total points. Unreal. 0241
Reposted by Christopher DempseyDenver Nuggets @nuggets.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Injury Update: Spencer Jones is questionable to return to the game with Left Foot Soreness 473
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Wow! The Nuggets with the upset victory tonight. They played unreal. Jalen Pickett with 7 3-pointers and 29 points. This is their best victory of the season, bar none. 1512
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I don't know how this second half is going to turn out, but the Nuggets -- without any of their top 6 players tonight vs. Philly -- have been excellent in the first half. #NuggetsSky 080
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Really good effort from the Nuggets but just could not make a shot in the 4th. They were 4-of-20 overall and 1-of-12 from the 3-point line. They committed 5 turnovers in the period as well. Loved the approach to this game, though. They play like this going forward, they’ll win more than not. 1150
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 03/01/2026Nuggets looking good through 3 quarters in Cleveland! 080
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 30/12/2025Nikola out for at least a month according to Shams. This is really good news. #NuggetsSky 3120
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 30/12/2025Nuggets coach David Adelman on Jokic... #NuggetsSky 042
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 30/12/2025Just an excruciating night for the #Nuggets tonight with Nikola Jokic going down with an injured knee in the loss to Miami. We should get more clarity of the severity of it at some point on Tuesday. 0170
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 26/12/2025Last piece of craziness from last night’s Nuggets game: The Nuggets scored 27 points in the last 2 minutes, 53 seconds of overtime. TWENTY-SEVEN! To put that in perspective, they scored 23 points in the entire 4th quarter, and 25 points in the entire 2nd quarter. And those are 12 minutes long. 0111
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 26/12/2025Murray is simply playing the best basketball of *literally* his entire life and if this man does not make the All-Star team this season, it would be a total crime. 0220
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 26/12/2025What Jamal Murray is doing from the 3-point line this month is insane. After making 9 last night vs the T-wolves, Murray has made FIFTY (50) 3-pointers in December, which leads the NBA. He also has the 4th-most points (306) & 5th-most assists (83) in December. #NuggetsSky 1171
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 15/12/2025Earlier today at #Nuggets practice, coach David Adelman said Julian Strawther (back) could return to action as early as tomorrow vs. Houston, but almost certainly at some point this week. He has not played since Nov. 15. #NuggetsSky 090
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 14/12/2025The Spurs are legit super scary... A great win for them over OKC tonight -- handing OKC just its second loss -- to advance to the NBA Cup title game 080
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 11/12/2025Good stuff from Peyton Watson on what he has learned from Christian Braun and added to his cutting profile. #NuggetsSky 0100
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 11/12/2025It really is remarkable, what OKC is doing to start this season. 24-1. And dominating pretty much every night. It’s as if they never have won a title. They are playing with that hunger, and I am here to tell you that this is rare. And so very impressive. #NBASky 141
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 08/12/2025Crazy stats last week for Murray, who is off to the best start of his career. 0110

Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 04/12/2025The Nuggets have now won 8 straight road games, which is a franchise record. 0100
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 04/12/2025Jamal Murray was simply insane tonight. Simply. In-sane. TEN 3-pointers made. FIFTY-TWO points on 19 of 25 shooting. Crazy good stuff in a win over the Pacers. #NuggetsSky 0150
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 30/11/2025A great team win for the #Nuggets tonight in Phoenix. Resonating with me is Spencer Jones huge impact on both ends; Hardaway's crazy sharp shooting (7 3s); and Bruce Brown playing on ball more than any other game this season. 0110
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 26/11/2025Love the new trend of #NBA broadcasts showing the home team’s intro video and then player introductions. So many of these are actually cool 071
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 22/11/2025The #Nuggets get their first clutch time win this season in a fun game at Houston. They made a ton of jump shots to get the win. Just 40 points in the paint. Defensively, they were really good overall against Houston, which had the No. 1 offensive rating in the NBA coming into the game. Stellar win. 1421
Christopher Dempsey @chrisadempsey.bsky.social · 22/11/2025We’ll just call the 2nd quarter the Reed Sheppard Quarter, and leave it at that. Just crazy good shooting. This game is entertaining. The Nuggets had 5 turnovers in the 2nd, so they’ll need to get that solved. And if they do, I think they’ll be fine. Both teams traded having good defensive quarters. 090
