The Nuggets are also engaged in trade scenarios for backup big man Zeke Nnaji, sources said. Denver had given the 23-year-old out of Arizona an opportunity to claim a clear-cut reserve role behind Nikola Jokić, but traded up in Wednesday’s NBA Draft to select a foreseeable replacement in Dayton center DaRon Holmes II. Nnaji’s $8 million salary could be an outgoing package, for example, to bring back Serbian point guard Vasilije Micić from Charlotte, who’s been a target for Denver, sources said. -via Yahoo!

League sources say the Denver Nuggets, for example, had serious interest recently in the prospect of adding George by way of a possible extend-and-trade with the Clippers (if he chose to go that route). Yet in addition to giving George the max deal he so desires, they also would have had to give up Michael Porter Jr., Zeke Nnaji and a significant amount of draft capital. The Nuggets value their draft picks perhaps as much as any other contender in the league, and so their interest ended there. But that situation is informative for a team such as the Warriors, who would surely prefer to add George while not giving up any other assets (other than matching money). -via New York Times / June 28, 2024
Ryan Blackburn: For the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama is not on the injury report as of now. Devin Vassell, Keldon Johnson, Jeremy Sochan, Cedi Osman, Charles Bassey, and Dominick Barlow are all out though. Denver’s entire starting unit is probable, as is Zeke Nnaji. -via Twitter @NBABlackburn / April 12, 2024
