Denver Nuggets · 3 notes
Denver's top six is set, David Adelman said at practice, with Marvin Bagley III and Tyus Jones next in line. Beyond that it's open: Bryce Hopkins and Alpha Diallo have had good moments. Spencer Jones is in the rotation "if he's healthy"; Adelman gave no update on his status.
Bryce Hopkins got a look with the Nuggets' starters. David Adelman liked him playing to his strengths and compared his court feel to Spencer Jones last season: "Bryce is really good... Long way to go." Hopkins said he is learning shooting guard, small forward and power forward.
Bryce Hopkins had a great day at Denver's Oct. 8 practice, David Adelman said, and is still working out his offensive role after his St. John's days: "Bryce is getting used to the speed, more importantly getting used to where he can be effective offensively."
