Inside the mind of Nuggets playoff X-factor Cam Johnson, who’s currently reading “The Fabric of the Cosmos: Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality” to unwind after games. One of the most fun interviews I’ve had with a player in a minute. For @DenverPost denverpost.com/2026/04/18/wil…

A few months back I wrote this in the newsletter as a tribute to Jason Collins after he detailed his battle with cancer. Never had the chance to meet him, but he impacted my life in a lot of ways. Rest in peace.

Denver wins 6-5 in the aggregate I guess?

The most insightful, meticulous project of the year: Guess the #Broncos schedule with @bylucaevans. One of us (can't say which to avoid bragging) nailed Weeks 16-18 last year. Is there another miracle in store? Here's some stuff thrown against the wall: denverpost.com/2026/05/13/bro…

This one hurts. Jason Collins was a pioneer. He had courage like you've never seen. He was an incredible teammate. And having him in Brooklyn at the start of my coaching journey meant so much. Those who knew him were blessed to call him a friend. You are already missed my brother. Rest in power. 💔

@prmorphine I’m probably going to do separate pieces getting into the specific trade dynamics so that I can write longer on it. Will definitely address (including on Nuggets Ink) if not in this mailbag

@BennettDurando Who are you hearing are most likely trade partners for Denver, and which Nuggets players are they interested in?

Nuggets mailbag this week. Hit me with your questions: denverpost.com/nuggets-mailba…

Really sad news out of Memphis. Brandon Clarke has died. He was 29. He was great with kids. He had just established his own foundation and was committed to pouring into the Memphis community. I went to two of those events. Keep his family in prayers. commercialappeal.com/story/sports/n…

In Game 3, Anthony Edwards delivered a Mother’s Day gem. For his mom, for the Wolves, and all of us who’ve lost. Free to all. nytimes.com/athletic/72698…

Wembanyama's ejection with 8:39 left in the 2nd quarter is the earliest an All-Star has been ejected from a playoff game in the play-by-play era (since 1997-98), per ESPN Research.

I'm really sorry to all our fans. I own taking this risk. Surprised it came up 5th after this year. I thought we were due some luck. But please remember - this team deserved a starting center to compete with the best teams next year. We have always been resilient.

Who wants to talk about the repeater tax?! Here’s what Josh Kroenke said and didn’t say today in response to several questions about spending on the 2026-27 Nuggets roster: denverpost.com/2026/05/08/nug…

#Avs Nathan MacKinnon confirmed the video floating around the internet yesterday was in fact from yesterday. When told there was a significant amount of support for him after the negative connotation of the OG post, he said he was very appreciative of everyone who had his back.

#Nuggets act like they can't win without Aaron Gordon — but can they win with him? denverpost.com/2026/05/08/nug…

@kusteveh it’s just not related to the topic of that article so it did not get addressed in that specific article

@BennettDurando I didn’t see that in the article I read, I will re read it, thanks for the reply

@kusteveh we did

@BennettDurando Doesn’t sound like he really said much of anything of substance, why bother even having a press conference. My take is he is fine with the #nuggets becoming irrelevant again, and why is no one asking about the training and medical staff?

Lots of transcribing and writing to do still on this end-of-season presser with Nuggets brass, but one clear theme is that Josh Kroenke pointed to the injuries a lot. He thought Denver could’ve been a 60- to 65-win team this season and felt the group never established a rhythm.
