Connelly took over as the Nuggets Executive Vice President for Basketball Operations and General Manager in June of 2013, taking over for Masai Ujiri, who left to lead the Toronto Raptors. The Nuggets elevated Connelly to President of Basketball Operations in 2017.

Under Connelly's guidance, the Nuggets have made the playoffs in each of the last four seasons.
