There aren’t many players that would fit into the current iteration of the Nuggets better than Trey Murphy III of the Pelicans. The 25-year-old forward broke out last season, averaging 21.2 points and 5.1 rebounds on the season. The 6’8” Murphy can do a bit of everything, offering solid defense on the wing and is a noted marksman from the outside.
Equally favorably, Murphy is on a very attractive deal that has him locked down for the next four seasons at just $112 million. It’s easy to see why a player like this would be extremely appealing to every team in the league, and the Nuggets are no exception.
