Nuggets reportedly trade for Roy Hibbert

On a day when the Nuggets swung for the fences at Paul George, they ended up with another former Pacer instead.

Per Adrian Wojnarowski, the Milwaukee Bucks have finalized a deal to send journeyman center Roy Hibbert to Denver in exchange for a 2019 second-round pick.

The second round pick is top-55 protected, which means that it’s basically free money for Denver as it likely won’t come to fruition.
