"In a general look at the Nuggets‘ offseason, Sam Amick of The Athletic adds the Mavericks to the list of teams with interest in Denver forward Cameron Johnson. Johnson seems to be the Nuggets’ most likely trade candidate, according to Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, who says Denver’s front office has been engaging in trade talks with multiple teams about the 30-year-old."
I have only seen him play once that I can recall, and he was on fire.
He's a good target. Denver absolutely HAS to shed salary. I think they'd want off Zeke Nnaji in any trade. Does expiring Klay Thompson do anything for them? The below trade saves them $13m, to help bring back Peyton Watson.
DEN: Klay Thompson, TPE
DAL: Cameron Johnson, Zeke Nnaji
There are a lot of different trade options that work there. This was the simplest and saved the most money, while making some sense.
Their roster afterwards:
Murray | Simpson
Braun | Klay*
Watson* | Strawther | Hopkins
Gordon | Holmes | Brazile
Jokic | Valanciunas
Valanciunas is rumored to be leaving for Europe. Same thing as last summer. No matter what the Nuggets do, they will have zero depth and will be in a major financial bind. Going nowhere fast...
