If there was a move that would separate the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference as they head into the meat of the offseason, rest assured that the team’s brass has contemplated it.
It’s why, as reported by The Denver Post, they sniffed around on a potential Anthony Davis trade but ultimately chose to pass in favor of their promising core.
There are other stars out there for hire – Kyrie Irving, Jimmy Butler, Kemba Walker, Tobias Harris and Khris Middleton are all set to become free agents – but all are highly unlikely to don a Nuggets uniform next year, owing to both financial restrictions and chemistry.
