The 2016–17 Denver Nuggets season was the 41st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Thanks to the continuing improvements of Nikola Jokić, the Nuggets would make significant improvements to their team, although they would be just one game shy from reaching the NBA playoffs that year.

Notes

  1. ↑ Denver will receive the picks if they are between #36–60, otherwise they will receive the picks in 2018.
  2. ↑ Sacramento has the right to swap its pick for Portland's; Denver will receive the lower of the two picks.
  3. ↑ Portland will receive the pick from Memphis if it's between #6–30 in 2017 or 2018, or unconditionally in 2019.
  4. ↑ If Denver's pick is #31–55 Milwaukee will receive nothing.
