In a game predicated on size, it almost defies belief that Bol Bol hasn’t made an impact yet in Denver. Entering his third season, the tantalizing, yet raw skyscraper has tools most players couldn’t dream about. “The guy is a huge person in terms of his physical stature, his size, his length, and he is really, really talented,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said on the Denver Post’s Nuggets Ink podcast this week. At 7-foot-3, Bol’s the rare prospect with fluid ball-handling skills, a reliable outside stroke and a wingspan that could, theoretically, deter even the craftiest guards from driving the lane. Theoretically, because two seasons after the Nuggets traded into the second round to get him, the stars haven’t come close to aligning for him. The first layer is a nod to the Nuggets’ success, as they’ve distinguished themselves among the loaded Western Conference and started to scratch the surface of title contention.
