Strawther recorded 33 points (8-13 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 12-13 FT), three rebounds, two assists and a block across 30 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 132-126 preseason win over the Timberwolves.
ANALYSISStrawther will open the 2024-25 regular season in a bench role, as
Christian Braun is penciled in as the starter in the backcourt alongside
Jamal Murray, but Strawther will certainly put his name in the conversation for a bigger role with more performances such as this one. Strawther looked particularly dangerous from three-point range, and keeping that up in the regular season will undoubtedly lead to a more significant role due to the Nuggets' lack of shooters.
