Nuggets Trade Zeke Nnaji for Peyton Watson | Sports News
Description
The Denver Nuggets may have found a clever two-for-one fix: trading Zeke Nnaji to an Eastern Conference rebuild team in exchange for clearing payroll and making room for a Peyton Watson sign-and-trade. Nnaji, stuck on the bench for six seasons with declining stats and a pricey contract, could be the perfect trade piece — especially since his deal includes a player option for 2027-28. By offloading him, Denver avoids the high draft pick cost of a Watson sign-and-trade while still keeping their rising star. It’s a smart move to lighten the load and stay under the salary cap apron.
