However, according to the latest reports from the United States, head coach David Adelman has no reason to worry about his future on the bench of the 2023 NBA champions.

As reported by Jake Fischer of The Stein Line, the changes in Denver will not be limited to the playing roster. Although the Nuggets have publicly backed Adelman, the front office is looking to add a former NBA head coach to the coaching staff as lead assistant, bringing additional experience to the bench.

"The changes in Denver won't be limited to the roster. The Nuggets have publicly backed David Adelman and are expected to keep him in charge for his second full season in 2026–27. However, the club is actively working to hire a former NBA head coach as its lead assistant to add another layer of experience to the coaching staff," Fischer wrote.

 
 

The confidence Denver's front office has in Adelman was already apparent in early May. At the time, NBA insider Brett Siegel reported that there was no appetite within the organization for a coaching change, despite the challenges the young coach faced throughout the season.

"Despite the challenges he has faced and the constant expectation that a team led by Nikola Jokić should compete for a championship, there is currently no sentiment within the organization that Denver should replace its head coach this summer," Siegel wrote.

It remains to be seen who will become Adelman's lead assistant.

Denver finished last season with a 54–28 record, good for third place in the Western Conference. However, the Nuggets' playoff run ended in the first round, where they were eliminated by the Minnesota Timberwolves in six games.
