With early-season injuries piling up across the NBA, the Denver Nuggets' sluggish start proves that surviving the regular season is the ultimate priority.

Writer Ben Handler argues that the Denver Nuggets must focus on surviving the NBA regular season intact rather than overreacting to an underwhelming start. Despite recent heavy defeats to the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors, Denver secured a much-needed win over the New Orleans Pelicans to reach two wins across their opening four games.
Handler emphasizes that Denver must prioritize health and long-term postseason readiness, noting severe injuries hitting rivals across the league. While the Nuggets manage issues with Cam Johnson, Julian Strawther, and Spencer Jones, the writer maintains that keeping Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray fresh remains their primary objective.
