Denver Nuggets forward JaMychal Green has declined his $7.6 million player option for the 2021-22 season, entering unrestricted free agency this offseason. He will undoubtedly have interest from other teams on the free market but apparently, there’s momentum towards a new deal.

Green came to Denver on a two-year, $15 million deal last offseason after playing for the LA Clippers and partially filled the hole Jerami Grant left.

There’s expected to be strong mutual interest between Green and Nuggets on a new deal in free agency.
