## Resource

Denver’s offseason is derailed by Zeke Nnaji’s bloated, underperforming contract—a four-year, $32M deal that’s costing them $15M over two years for a non-factor on the court. With no rebuilding team willing to take him, the Nuggets face a brutal choice: trade a rotation player or sacrifice cap space, possibly attaching Nnaji to a valuable asset like Cam Johnson to clear the books. It’s a painful but necessary move to keep roster flexibility and pursue key free agents like Peyton Watson. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
