The Nuggets must act fast in addressing this urgent roster need amid the uncertainty of the Jonas Valanciunas situation.

Denver remains focused on securing Jonas Valanciunas as Jokic’s primary backup despite unexpected overseas interest in the veteran.

Last year, a report found that Americans have continually getting less sleep and more stress — a trend that started in the 1940s and has only sped up over the last 10 years or so. We don’t get a lot of vacation time compared to most countries, and the majority of us don’t even use all of it. It’s hustle, hustle and hustle again.

The Nuggets have a logical reason behind their reported inclination to block Jonas Valanciunas' reported move to Panathinaikos.

The Denver Nuggets aim to make a deep playoff run in the 2025-26 season, following their consecutive appearances in the Western Conference Semifinals. The first step in that journey is a successful free agency. It should be noted that none of the opinions provided in this article reflect the views of the front office and coaching staff.
