Faried scored 12.6 points (51% FG, 13% 3Pt, 69% FT) to go along with 8.9 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.8 blocks in 28 minutes per game through 75 regular season games in 2014-15. The 25-year-old forward took a small step backwards in an underwhelming 2014-15, and will look to rebound and improve under new coach Mike Malone in 2015-16. Faried is under contract with the Nuggets through the 2018-19 season.
