Re: 2025 Trade Deadline (Feb 6th)
Seems very unlikely DEN gets involved, perhaps something minor to get some apron space. They have showcase Nnaji the past two games and he has responded well but still has a LOT on his contract left so I don't see teams stepping up for him. That said, he does look like he could get some more PT readying him for the playoffs. Playing with Jokic has shown he can be a rim-protector and maybe regain some much needed shooting confidence. The move will more importantly give AG more (and fewer) mins off the bench, allow a bit of rehab time, at least until the playoffs.

Re: 2025 Trade Deadline (Feb 6th)
OK, we are expecting too much from our FO. There are bigger chances to see HoF-level players like Doncic, Davis, and Butler finding a new Western team than expect to see one decent new bench player in Denver.
Our Front Office sends a clear message up to the 2025 trade deadline:

Re: 2025 Trade Deadline (Feb 6th)
BTW what kind of message is MPJ trying to send before the trade deadline with back-to-back 35+ games (he previously had two 35+ games overall)?

Proving to Booth and Malone that if you trade me, you'll regret it ! That said, both games we against the Pelicans.

He just prevented the Ingram+Murphy trade

Re: 2025 Trade Deadline (Feb 6th)
My wish is Bruce Brown if we get below the first apron, as he will be bought out by Pelicans.
The problem is we don't have assets to unload contracts. Cancar + Saric's would be the easiest way, but still complicated. Two signings in the FA, what a horrible summer from Booth.
We could also unload Cancar + Pickett + Tyson, but they still have 4M guaranteed for next season. Moving Nnaji looks directly impossible.

The only useful former Nuggets player right now is Malik Beasley ($6M). All others were badly declined or were still useful despite the decline but were overpaid for our salary cap (like Grant, Nurkic, KCP).
Mason Plumlee for veteran's minimum can also be an option during the buyout season if the Suns replace Nurkic with someone healthier and don't need 3rd center.
Bruce is not the same player from his Brooklyn and Denver peak. TS% from nearly 60% dropped to "negative impact" TS%52% with big injury problems last and this season.
