Impact Gordon tied the team-high mark in points and was one of five Denver players to reach double figures. The 30-year-old forward shot a career-high 43.6 percent from beyond the arc in the 2024-25 campaign and remains a key contributor for Denver entering the 2025-26 season. Over 51 regular-season games (42 starts) last season, he averaged 14.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists across 28.4 minutes per contest.

Cameron Johnson - Muted performance in Denver debut Johnson logged two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one assist over 15 minutes during the Nuggets' 126-116 preseason loss to the Timberwolves on Saturday.
Impact Johnson made his first appearance in a Nuggets uniform Saturday, though he didn't make much of an impact on the offensive side of the floor. He spent the last two full seasons with the Nets but was traded by Brooklyn to Denver in late June in exchange for Michael Porter and an unprotected 2032 first-round pick. Johnson averaged a career-high 18.8 minutes per game for the Nets last season, but he's expected to take on a more complimentary role while playing alongside Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.

Jalen Pickett - Leads Denver bench in scoring Pickett tallied 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four assists and three rebounds over 14 minutes during Saturday's 126-116 preseason loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Pickett connected on a team-high three three-pointers Saturday, leading the bench in scoring while finishing second on the Nuggets in that category behind Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon (14 points each). Pickett saw his bench role steadily grow over the course of the 2024-25 regular season, though his playing time was cut down significantly during the postseason, especially during the second round of the Western Conference playoffs against the Thunder. The 2023 second-rounder is facing stiff competition for minutes from Bruce Brown, Julian Strawther and Tim Hardaway.

Nikola Jokic - Scores 14 points in preseason loss Jokic contributed 14 points (4-5 FG, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 19 minutes in Saturday's 126-116 preseason loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Jokic led Denver in rebounds and tied the team high in points during a near-perfect performance from the field. The three-time MVP has finished in the top two of MVP voting in five consecutive seasons and is coming off arguably the best campaign of his career. Over 70 regular-season appearances in the 2024-25 season, the 30-year-old big man averaged 29.6 points, 12.7 rebounds, 10.2 assists, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.8 steals per game, shooting 57.6 percent from the field and a career-high 41.7 percent from beyond the arc.
