Milos Teodosic

[NuggetsWY]

BSNDenver calls him "the best point guard not playing in the NBA" and most of Europe will agree. He's 6'5" and a pure point guard who LOVES to pass. He played with Jokic on the silver medal team.

According to Teodosic, no one has made an offer, but he's willing to play for CSKA Moscow. He said, "I like to play and I don’t like to sit on the bench and I would not agree on any contract if I have to sit on the bench. This is my condition for going to the NBA.”

BSNDenver said a great deal more, including, "As recently as mid-January, Teodosic has made it known publicly that he wants to play in the NBA next season. The CSKA Moscow guard is averaging 14.4 points on 42.5 percent shooting from the field and 33.7 percent from three, to go with nearly seven assists per game. He’s a legend in Europe that can shoot it from distance and distribute, but is a minus defensively, something that was apparent in Rio."

The "minus defensively" isn't that bad, at least not on the Nuggets and the way they're scoring, why not? I'll bet he does increase the Nuggets' scoring. Of course they'd have to sign him plus Nelson would have to be traded. Then there's the same old issue I've had all along, 30+ for a 29 year old and less for Murray/Mudiay. <sigh> If you promise to keep it silent; I'll admit that our biggest "rookies play" fan (me) is actually in favor of this. Oh yeah, at 6'5", he could play some SG too.
