Beat writer Mike Singer opens up the Nuggets Mailbag periodically during the offseason. Pose a Nuggets — or NBA — related question here.
I wonder what the reasoning is for the Nuggets to trade up in the draft? You think they will lose JaMychal Green and Will Barton to free agency?

I’m only going to address the trade portion of this question and get to Green/Barton next. The reason the Nuggets would trade up is if a lottery target of theirs fell. That’s the only scenario I could see them moving up.
