The 2021–22 Denver Nuggets season was the 46th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the franchise's 55th season of existence overall. The Nuggets entered the season after a second-round loss at the hands of the eventual Western Conference champion Phoenix Suns.[1] They finished the season 48–34. Still, they lost to the eventual champion Golden State Warriors in five games in the first round.[2] The two teams previously met in the first round of the 2013 playoffs in which the Warriors defeated the Nuggets in six games. Nikola Jokić was awarded the NBA MVP Award for the second consecutive season.[3]

Injuries marred the team as it missed two of its young core stars.[4] Jamal Murray was rumored to return from his torn ACL suffered the previous April but sat out the entire campaign, while Michael Porter Jr. would appear in only nine games before needing surgery again on his back in November.[5] Porter Jr. was set to be the secondary scoring option to Jokić in the absence of Murray.[6]

Failed Bol Bol trade

On 10 January 2022, the Nuggets attempted to trade Bol Bol and draft compensation to the Detroit Pistons for Rodney McGruder.[11][12] The trade unraveled three days later, however, as Bol failed his physical examination. Thereafter, the transaction was voided; Bol and McGruder stayed with their respective teams.[13] On 19 January, the Nuggets traded Bol again (along with PJ Dozier), this time to the Boston Celtics, as part of a three-team deal.[14]
