Denver Nuggets pull off a bold trade, sending restricted free agent Peyton Watson to the Cavaliers for a lucrative four-year, $22M deal — in exchange for future draft assets and Max Strus, now headed to the Clippers. With Watson’s departure, the Nuggets are eyeing veteran scorer DeMar DeRozan, who’s available on the cheap at the veteran’s minimum after being waived by the Kings. DeRozan, entering his 18th NBA season, offers elite scoring and durability — exactly what Denver needs off the bench after losing Tim Hardaway Jr. Other teams like Miami and Washington are also in the mix, but with tight salary constraints, the Nuggets may have to settle for DeRozan’s proven production and reliability.
