## Resource

The Denver Nuggets could unlock major cap flexibility and upgrade their wing depth by trading Christian Braun to the Dallas Mavericks for Naji Marshall and AJ Johnson. With Braun’s five-year extension looming and his performance slipping due to injuries, Marshall offers a physical, defensive-minded upgrade who averages more steals and scores more points per game — even if his three-point shooting mirrors Braun’s struggles. Marshall’s expiring contract gives Denver flexibility to extend him if he excels, or move on if he doesn’t. Adding AJ Johnson, a promising rookie, rounds out the deal at minimal cost. This trade could save nearly $9 million, freeing up crucial space to re-sign key players like Peyton Watson — making it a smart, strategic move for the Nuggets.
