Christian Mackey gives Denver efficient frontcourt minutes with rebounding pop
Christian Mackey is a dependable Denver frontcourt piece whose calling card has been efficiency and board work: in his 2024-25 role he averaged 3.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, and a team-best 61.0% shooting in 9.2 minutes per game. He stood out when given a bigger load, including an 11-rebound, 8-point game, suggesting he can impact possessions even without high usage. If you want a low-drama, high-effort big who finishes well and competes on the glass, he fits.
