On Thursday, Klutch Sports Group welcomed Peyton Watson to the team. After Watson and the Denver Nuggets didn't come to terms on an extension before the regular season started, the 23-year-old will hit unrestricted free agency next summer. He's already preparing for that by changing representation, after previously being with Excel Sports.
Denver signed Christian Braun to a five-year, $125 million extension. Due to the team's financial situation, everyone knew that either Braun or Watson would re-sign, but not both. The Nuggets prioritized Braun, who was coming off a breakout season in which he was in the conversation for the Most Improved Player award.
