Nuggets' Watson Dilemma: Trade or Lose Him
Description
The Denver Nuggets playoff exit due to a banged-up Minnesota Timberwolves team has left the teams front office in a tough spot, especially with Peyton Watsons restricted free agency looming. Watsons absence, due to a hamstring injury, was felt heavily as he averaged 14.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 41% from three. The teams other players, Christian Braun and Cameron Johnson, couldnt fill the gap. With injuries to Aaron Gordon and Watson, the Nuggets are considering shaking up the roster to stay in contention around Nikola Jokic. The team might trade Jamal Murray or Aaron Gordon to re-sign Watson without exceeding the luxury tax. Other teams like the Lakers, Nets, and Bulls are interested in Watsons two-way upside.
