Winners of the first title in their history last June before losing Bruce Brown (Indiana) and Jeff Green (Houston) once the “free agency” opened its doors, the nuggets will have to draw internally next season to replace their two “role players”, so valuable last season.
And among the players who could be mobilized more by Michael Malone, there is Reggie Jackson. Arrived in Colorado during the season, in the exchange that sent Bones Hyland to the Clippers, the 33-year-old point guard had not played much behind Jamal Murray last season (16 appearances), but his leaders had not yet didn’t want to let him go and then extended him for two seasons and $10.25 million.
A sign of confidence, no doubt carrying a message: this time, denver rely on Reggie Jackson.
” It’s a big season ahead for me, and for the club in general. We must understand that now we have a target in the back, as a team », thus ensures veteran leader. ” And on my side, I have to do my part of the job, and do everything I can to make this season a success. »
Stabilize a weakened bench
Namely to replace Jamal Murray at the lead of the Nuggets, on short sequences. ” My job is to come in and try to stabilize the ship. With the young people, we will have a lot of fun in this ‘second unit’. Our job will be to make sure everything goes as planned. [sans les titulaires] “, he adds indeed.
Still able to shoot 17 points per game as a starter two years ago with the Clippers, the former Boston College man seems to still have some under the hood and should therefore be of service to Mike Malone.
” Obviously, Bruce’s departures [Brown] and Jeff [Green] are hard to cash in, because they were so valuable to our team. Loved guys in the locker room, and important elements in what we were achieving on the pitch. Their contribution and their leadership are not easy to replace “Concludes Reggie Jackson, who ultimately may be the big winner of the Denver club’s offseason. ” But in my opinion, we have one of the best five majors in the league. »
