Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone works against the Chicago Bulls during the fourth quarter of Chicago’s 117-96 win at Ball Arena in Denver on Wednesday, March 8, 2023.

Malone liked how Key was defending and using his physicality, but he thought Key looked a bit uncomfortable at the other end, a natural growing pain for a player adapting to a new system. “These things open up and they shoot beams out of them,” he said. “I don’t know. … I think more for me, it’s how symbolic it is, that you get a ring for being a champion. I think it’s pretty cool. My dad just passed away, but I believe that my father and I are the only father-son duo in NBA history to both have world championship rings. So that kind of makes it even that much more meaningful to me and my family.
Julian Strawther’s text was a role model recommendation. Malone wanted the sharpshooting rookie to find inspiration in Klay Thompson.
