Summary
The Nuggets quietly traded rising star Peyton Watson to the Cavaliers, sparking fan outrage and raising questions about whether they’re truly prioritizing Nikola Jokic’s prime.

Fans feel blindsided, wondering why money flows freely for other ventures but not for building the ultimate championship roster around their MVP.
