Nuggets #22 Jersey Selection
Showcase your Denver Nuggets pride with this distinctive Denver Nuggets #22 jersey. This unique number has been worn by notable Nuggets including current forward-center Zeke Nnaji, veteran forward Johnny Newman, and early Nuggets forward Glen Gondrezick. Nnaji has worn #22 since joining Denver in 2021 and remains the current wearer of the number, continuing his Nuggets career into the 2026-27 season. Newman represented #22 during the 1997-98 season, appearing in 74 games and averaging 14.7 points per game. Gondrezick carried #22 during Denver's early NBA era from 1980 through 1983, giving the number a connection to an earlier generation of Nuggets basketball. Crafted from lightweight, breathable moisture-wicking fabric with tackle twill numbers and signature Nuggets graphics, it delivers athletic comfort and durable game-day style.
