Nuggets Coffee Talk Name that player!
After signing with the Nuggets before the 2024/25 season, Russell kept racking up buckets. Westbrook surpassed 26,000 career points in a March game, becoming the 21st NBA player to reach the milestone and second point guard after Oscar Robertson.
Who is it?
A strong candidate for Rookie-of-the-Year honors, the supposedly defense-oriented Mutombo is the team's leading scorer (18.9 PPG) and placed third in the league in rebounding (13.8 RPG) in early January. A Rookie-of-the-Month Award winner. Mutombo still fills the lane in imposing fashion, averagi...
Who is it?
Christian more than doubled his best PPG average in 2024/25, scoring 20+ points 17 times. That included a career-high 30-point effort against the Pacers in April when he went 12-for-16 from the field, adding eight rebounds and four assists.

After failing to connect on his second dunk, Jackson earned his highest grade of the event with a reverse, two-handed jam that received a 42.8.
