The Denver Nuggets inquired about potentially acquiring Paul George last offseason, sources told Ramona Shelburne of ESPN.
Talks never escalated with the Nuggets not willing to discuss Christian Braun, Peyton Watson, or Julian Strawther in a deal.
The Clippers were also uninterested in only taking back Michael Porter Jr. and Zeke Nnaji's salary.
Since their title-winning season in 2023, the Nuggets have lost Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Bruce Brown, Jeff Green and Reggie Jackson.
