Cam Whitmore got his chance in the Denver Nuggets' home opener against the Pelicans, but costly mistakes may have already cost him his rotation spot.
Writer Ben Handler argues that Denver Nuggets wing Cam Whitmore failed to capitalize on a prime opportunity during Saturday's home opener against the New Orleans Pelicans. With Cam Johnson sidelined by an injury, Whitmore entered the rotation but recorded four points, zero assists, and missed both three-point attempts across 11 minutes, finishing as a minus-10.
Handler criticizes Whitmore's court awareness, citing costly miscues at the end of quarters that conceded easy baskets. Additionally, Handler notes that Whitmore was outplayed by rookie Trevon Brazile, suggesting Whitmore risks falling out of the rotation entirely if his team-oriented play does not improve.
