The Denver Nuggets have reportedly been shopping some of there players. The players that have been mentioned in trade talk are JaVale McGee and Wilson Chandler. Both players would huge disappointments for the Nuggets this past season, and if the team could move them, it would be considered a success. McGee played in just 5 games this season, and Chandler averaged 13 points per game.

Both players combined take up around 17 million in cap space, so moving them would give them a ton of flexibility. McGee is the most likely to be traded because of how many other big men are on the roster. The Nuggets are loaded with big men, and they even just drafted yet another Center. The Nuggets were looking to send the duo in a deal for Kevin Love, but it appears that Minnesota is now interested in a different deal. If the Nuggets can somehow trade at least of the two, they will be helping their franchise.
