NBA Power Rankings 2025-26: Thunder Dominate Again, But Which Unexpected Team Crashes the Top Five?
2. Denver Nuggets
(7-2, last week No. 3)
Nuggets coach David Adelman nailed it when he said of Nikola Jokic, “I’ll keep saying, just enjoy this. You know, while you get to have it.” The three-time MVP is off to his best start ever, averaging 25.2 points, 13 rebounds and 11.9 assists a game. With better spacing around him, he is shooting 76.8% on two-pointers this season, and his true shooting percentage so far this season of 73.3 would have led the league a season ago. Behind him, the Nuggets are in the top three in offensive and defensive rating this season.
