How can the Nuggets improve an already elite offense? Last year, from December 15 when Nikola Jokic took the helm as starting center through the end of the season, the Nuggets had the league’s highest offensive efficiency. So what could they possibly do to improve if they’re already at the top?

In my latest article at BSN Denver, I take a deep dive into the relationship between the touch time taken before shots to offensive efficiency, and explore how reducing touch time could give the Nuggets offense a boost by creating higher percentage shots.

Head on over to BSN to read the story in its entirety, and if you don’t already you can follow me on Twitter @NuggetsDenJoel.
