Tyler King is back with another edition of Basketball in the Mountains after a fun slate of games across the time zone this past weekend.We start in the NBA, where the Nuggets have won 3 of their last 4 without Nikola Jokic as Denver continues to keep pace despite multiple key injuries. Peyton Watson's breakout season also continues as he was named Western Conference Player of the Week for his efforts in the recent wins, including a pair over the 76ers and Celtics to cap the two-week East Coast swing.Tyler continues with the Suns, who have proven to be a really solid team in the West with 10 wins in their last 13 games. Jordan Ott has made such a positive impact in Phoenix and it shows with the amount of production he's gotten from Devin Booker at the top of the roster down to the guys at the end of the bench.We wrap up today's show by recapping some college action, led by Utah State and the statement win at Boise State, which moves the Aggies to 5-0 in Mountain West play and in a clear tier of their own atop the conference. Tyler also gives some takeaways from seeing various teams in person last week, led by New Mexico and both Colorado and Colorado State.Make sure to subscribe to the channel and turn on notifications to never miss an episode with the NBA and college basketball seasons underway!
