Of course it’s Emmanuel Mudiay!
If you’re not on the Mudiay bandwagon, then you’re the only one left at the station. In all honesty, I don’t think there’s been this much excitement surrounding a Nuggets draft pick since Carmelo Anthony, and the kid deserves it.
At just 19 years old, Mudiay checks off everything you could want in an elite point guard: size, strength, speed, court vision … and a somewhat kind-of promising jump shot.
If the Denver Nuggets are ever going to be a contender in the next decade, it’s going to be because of this guy. So make sure you’re watching this season, so you can say you’ve been there from the start.
