Jaden McDaniels Faces Fierce Backlash in Denver—But Is There More to the Story?
McDaniels labeled the Nuggets “ all bad defenders ” after Minnesota won Game 2. Denver didn’t have much of a response in the lead-up to Game 3 — or during the game itself.
On Saturday, McDaniels again drew the ire of the Nuggets — more specifically, Jokic — after violating an unwritten rule by scoring on a layup with the game already conceded. Jokic raced down the court and confronted him as players gathered around. The dustup resulted in e jections and fines but no suspensions.
This time, the Nuggets had a response. So did the Ball Arena crowd, which booed McDaniels each time he touched the ball.
