Lot has happened with the #Nuggets since the last mailbag, and I know you’ve got Qs. Curious about Tim Connelly’s exit? Wondering what it means for Calvin Booth? What about trade options and the draft? Drop me a question

One person who previously worked with Booth and still works in the NBA described him as “detailed,” and extremely prepared. For example, the person cited a mock draft exercise where scouts and executives debated all 60 picks and made note of how Booth always had something to say about each prospect. Those opinions, the person said, were always backed up with player comparisons, sometimes going as far back as 20 years, and data to support his argument. -via Denver Post / May 28, 2022
