Nikola Jokić and Denver Nuggets Aim for Dominant 2026-27 Season

Nikola Jokić leads the Denver Nuggets into the 2026-27 season following another MVP-caliber campaign. Despite offseason roster questions and historical drop-off numbers when Jokić is off the floor, the star center pairs with an elite core including Jamal Murray. A healthy roster gives Denver a high floor and a clear pathway toward competing for the Western Conference's top seed and an NBA title.
