The Nuggets face tough roster decisions ahead of the 2026-27 season, with Peyton Watson’s $25M contract and looming luxury tax forcing moves. A sign-and-trade could send Watson to teams like the Bucks or Cavs, while Cameron Johnson—on a $23M expiring deal—may be traded for cap relief. Zeke Nnaji’s bloated extension complicates things further; moving him might be their only shot at staying under the second apron, even if it means pairing him with Watson in a deal. The clock is ticking, and Denver’s choices could reshape their future.
