The Denver Nuggets currently hold the 14th pick in the NBA Draft, who would be a surprise at that position?

There are mock drafts everywhere that you could look at for a realistic expectation. Personally, I’m a big supporter of the Nuggets drafting a small forward, but that’s not what this article is about.

Instead, I’ll be discussing the type of player that many of us like to root for, the dark horses. You know, the guy that doesn’t really get much love on the draft board, but gets picked higher than expected?

Yeah, that guy, so if you were expecting a pick that I think will absolutely happen, this is your warning. I mean, did anyone really expect the Nuggets to get Tyler Lydon last year?

Now then, there are several options at the 14th pick that may not be on many draft boards, and without wasting anymore time, let’s get started.
