Denver Nuggets Interested In Trade For Bryn Forbes
The Denver Nuggets have expressed interest in trading for San Antonio Spurs guard Bryn Forbes. The Spurs are shopping Forbes, who is on a one-year, $4.5 million contract.
Denver has been looking to upgrade their shooting around Nikola Jokic. The Nuggets currently rank in the bottom half of the NBA in three-point shooting, which is Forbes' specialty. Denver is hoping to get Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. back before the end of the season but could use some shot-making until then.
San Antonio rarely makes in-season deals but has Forbes and veteran big man Thaddeus Young available leading up to the trade deadline. Young isn't a part of the Spurs rotation and is widely expected to be traded or bought out. Moving Forbes would open up more playing time for a host of young San Antonio guards, including Joshua Primo, Devin Vassell and Tre Jones.
