The chances of the Nuggets being involved in an inevitable Giannis Antetokounmpo trade are slim to none. But that doesn’t mean the trade won’t have massive ramifications for Denver. Three teams that appear to be poised to strike as soon as the Bucks start fielding calls are three of the Nuggets’ chief rivals in the current West: the Thunder, Spurs, and Rockets.
As crazy as it may seem, those teams have as good of trade package as anyone. OKC has a mountain of draft picks saved up. They could overwhelm Milwaukee with picks and throw in a handful of solid young players while keeping SGA, Jalen Williams, and Chet Holmgren.
