Want free-agent fireworks? They’re probably not going to happen in Denver.
Not while the Nuggets are still soaking in the afterglow of the franchise’s first championship.
The biggest decision looming over the Nuggets’ free-agency plans remains Bruce Brown, and the $7.8 million Denver can offer its sixth man.
The Nuggets don’t have full Bird rights on Brown and are thus hindered on how much they can offer him this summer. Other teams — and there are expected to be many Brown suitors — can offer more. One team with significant interest in Brown, according to multiple sources, is the Los Angeles Lakers, who were swept by the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals.
