Episode Details

The Denver Nuggets are contemplating a challenging decision this offseason: trading Cam Johnson to create salary cap space and re-sign restricted free agent Payton Watson. Johnsons hefty salary and the teams proximity to the second apron tax line make this a tough call. Watson, who has shown himself to be a better long-term fit, has recently averaged 17.3 points per game and earned a Player of the Week nod. His defensive prowess and youthful potential make him an attractive option, especially with Nikola Jokics performance waning. The Lakers are potential suitors, but the Nuggets could secure Watsons services by matching any offer, setting them up for future championship runs.
