DeMar DeRozan Set to Operate as High-Usage Focal Point off Nuggets Bench

DeMar DeRozan is expected to serve as the primary offensive engine for the Denver Nuggets' second unit under head coach David Adelman. The plan keeps Denver's starting five intact while putting the ball frequently in the hands of the veteran forward. Despite spending nearly his entire career as a starter, the 37-year-old's scoring and playmaking will provide a dependable offensive spark whenever Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are off the floor.
