Nuggets Expect to Re-Sign Peyton Watson

The Denver Nuggets are optimistic about re-signing Peyton Watson in restricted free agency, but they may need to trade a key player, likely Cam Johnson or Christian Braun, to make room. Braun, who received a five-year, $125 million extension, has underperformed, highlighting Watson’s importance. Meanwhile, Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon are entering the first years of their lucrative extensions, with Murray coming off an All-Star season. Gordon’s injury history raises concerns as he approaches nearly 20 percent of the cap.
