Must Waive Players

Denver would have 20 standard contract players after the trade and would need to waive 5 players.

Hard Cap

This trade would result in the Nuggets crossing the tax apron of ($188.9M) while hardcapped at the 2nd apron. Therefore this trade is not possible. Remove $2.9M of incoming value to remain below the hard cap.

Hard Cap Reasons

Used a portion of their mid-level exception to sign Dario Saric.

Financial

Nuggets are unable to complete this trade. Since they are now an over second apron team after this trade, they are only able to take back 100% of the salary they are sending out, plus $0.

Nuggets can only take back $51.4M in salary based on the amount they are sending out.

Cut $1.8M from the Nuggets incoming trade value to make this trade successful for the Nuggets.

LEBRON (Luck-adjusted player Estimate using a Box prior Regularized ON-off) impact data is provided by BBall Index . See how LEBRON is calculated, and explore the data.

It would need to be fixed for cap compliance post 2025 season.

Denver would NEVER EVER trade Jokic. But I am just throwing this out there like everyone else out there. Other than the OKC and Houston Joker trades.

Grizz pair Joker w/JJJ and Bane; Nuggets get picks and young players and off long term salary (save for Issac); Magic get needed playmaking PG. Big 3 w/Franz and Paolo. Carter and Suggs good complimentary pieces in starting 5.

Denver gets a lot of Athleticism(GG, Black, De Silva) as well as a quality 6th man in Aldama. Murray could also be traded or they could compete for the play in. Issac could be flipped as well.

Grizz would need to get a Tyus Jones type for PG (Jokic would obviously be primary ball handler).

G-T. Jones G-D. Bane F-J. Wells (get better soon!) F-JJJ C-Jokic

Bench would need to be heavily worked on:

F/C-Clarke G-Kennard G-Pippen
