Nuggetѕ Named Among Favorіteѕ to Land Heat’ѕ $96 Mіllіon Guard іn Offѕeaѕon Trade

Denver Nuggets stars Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray

The Denver Nugget are coming off another season that saw them be eliminated in the second round of the playoffs, this time in seven games by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Of course, this now marks back-to-back seasons that Denver has been eliminated in the second round.

Because of this, the Nuggets may elect to make some changes to their roster this offseason as they try to upgrade it around 3-time MVP Nikola Jokic, who is coming off arguably the best season of his incredible career.

For Denver, they could elect to run it back with their current core of Jokic, Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter Jr. and Christian Braun, though a change may be needed as they try to chase a championship next season.

Denver also has a key decision to make regarding backup point guard Russell Westbrook, who declined his player option and will be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

The Nuggets could elect to try and re-sign Westbrook this offseason in free agency but if they are either unwilling or unable to do so, they will need to find a new backup point guard for their second unit.

There are many options available for the Nuggets but they have recently been linked to Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier.

According to Bovada, the Nuggets have the second-best odds (+350) to land Rozier this offseason via trade with the Los Angeles Clippers emerging as the favorite (+325) to acquire him.

Rozier will be entering the final year of his contract and the Heat’s asking price should be a cheap one after his struggles this season.
