He's the former best HS player in the nation who hasn't played in virtually 3 years. He's finally clear to play in the summer league. Could he be the wing we've always needed?

I wouldn't trade AD to the nuggets unless they gave up Jamal Murray as well, but i don't think they do that.

So my question: would the Nuggets let MPJ go for some of the assets we receive in the AD trade? Would you even want him given his injury history? I say let's roll the dice if the Nuggets were interested

Here are some highlights. Says he is a stretch 4 but at 6' 11" and his small frame, he just seems like the wing we need. He can shoot thank god.

If we really covet him, and we have the Aaron Nelson to get a lot out of him, we could probably flip them Jaylen Brown if we trade with Boston, Lonzo Ball if we trade with the Lakers, Kevin Knox or some first rounder we don't care about if we go with New York, or who knows.

Just depends on where MPJ is at right now. I forgot he existed at all all season long.

He’s cleared for Summer league and said in his interviews, “he’s leaps and bounds better than he thought he’d be”.

He’d fit perfect with Zion. He can’t be a bully down low, but is a great shooter and y’all as shite. He looks like KD. He doesn’t have to be a stretch 4 if he comes here like scouts we’re saying. He can be a 3 who’s all about offense. His D is suspect but I think Zion can help cover it up.

I don’t think Knox gets us MPJ, but jaylen is a definite possibility. The nuggets want to win now, and MPJ will take a few years.

I mean yes. He obviously had back issues. But his potential warrants a shot by a franchise like the Pels who cannot attract premier free agents.

How high Denver values him is the question, and whether or not anything we get back in the AD trade is worth it to them.

I would not spend anything of substance acquiring him. He feels fine now, but he will have more issues. He’s had multiple back surgeries at such a young age.
