With the trade deadline at 3 PM Eastern time tomorrow, this edition of SOTW will focus on trades that the Denver Nuggets have made at the trade deadline. Who’s the best player the Nuggets have ever traded away? Who’s the best player the Nuggets have ever received in return?
I will be using Win Shares as a Nugget and VORP as a Nugget to calculate each scenario. The only criteria is that the trade had to take place in mid-late February, around the time of the trade deadline every year.
Best player Denver has ever traded away at the deadline:
Honorable Mention: Chauncey Billups - 25.
