Nuggets set to hold predraft workouts at the Pepsi Center

The Denver Nuggets hold the 22nd pick in the 2011 NBA Draft on June 23. Nuggets executives Josh Kroenke and Masai Ujiri and the team’s scouting department have been preparing for the past several months, and they will take a closer look at draft prospects during workouts Wednesday and Thursday at the Pepsi Center.

Guards Iman Shumpert (6-6, 220) from Georgia Tech and Nolan Smith (6-4, 190) from Duke and forward Jordan Williams (6-10, 250) from Maryland are among those scheduled to work out on Wednesday.

Scheduled for Thursday’s workout are University of Colorado guard Cory Higgins (6-5, 185), as well as guard Charles Jenkins (6-3, 220) of Hofstra and small forward Travis Leslie (6-4, 205) of Georgia.

Denver has the No. 22 pick in the June 23 draft. One of the more intriguing prospects to work out Wednesday was Jordan Williams, a 6-foot-10, 250-pound post from Maryland. He was joined by guards Iman Shumpert of Georgia Tech, Corey Fisher of Villanova, and Smith, who helped Duke win the 2010 NCAA title, as well as forwards Nikola Vucevic of USC and Malcolm Thomas from San Diego State.

As the Nuggets work out players, they will look for the best fit at No. 22, but also consider lesser players for a possible spot on the training camp roster — whenever there is training camp. There's a possibility of a lockout July 1 when the new business year starts.

And these draft workouts aren't just for players. Karl brought in two retired players to get in some work as coaches. Former Nuggets Ryan Bowen and Darvin Ham are back in Denver this week.

"This week will be kind of the beginning of the intensity of the time," said Karl, who headlined the American Cancer Society's Hope Invitational golf tournament Monday at The Club at Pradera. "And it's fun because everyone is hopeful of our team."

Especially the coach.

Karl is convinced the Nuggets will get a quality player if they stay put and choose at No. 22 in the June 23 draft, but he isn't ruling out the Nuggets moving up in the first round.

"The bottom line is we have a first-round pick that we think is going to be a pretty good player," Karl said. "But the possibility of maneuvering and putting yourself in position to see what else happens is I think what (team management) is going to be doing in the next 10 days."

"Every once in a while you kind of fall in love with a guy that you think might be better than the rest of the league (thinks)," Karl said. "And sometimes you get lucky (and get) the guy everybody thinks is pretty good and gets pushed down to you. I'm excited about it."

Tyler intrigues me, if we can get someone that knows how to get and keep young talent with head problems under control I think he could become a beast, he has all the physical talent. I would love for the nuggets to buy a late 1st or early 2nd and take the chance on the guy.
