The Denver Nuggets face challenges during the NBA trade deadline, possessing limited assets, including only one future second-round pick and no first-round picks after trading for Cam Johnson. With key players like Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon deemed untouchable, trading veterans like Bruce Brown or Tim Hardaway Jr. could weaken their depth. Christian Braun’s trade complexity also hinders moves, while Johnson stands out as a potential trade candidate. Additionally, the franchise is slightly over the luxury tax threshold, prompting possible cost-cutting measures involving younger players.
