NBA 2K19 MyGM: 30 Franchise-Saving Trades You Must Make

23. Denver Nuggets

Anthony Davis NBA 2K19
2K Sports

Players Out (position, rating, contract value/length, age):

Mason Plumlee (C, 76, $26.96m/2, 28), Jamal Murray (PG, 81, $3.5m/1, 21), Trey Lyles (PF, 76, $3.36m/1, 22)

Players In (Minnesota Timberwolves):

Jimmy Butler (SG, 88, $20.45m/1, 29)

Why:

Denver need a second star to pair with Nikola Jokic, and the tradeable Jimmy Butler is among the strongest candidates, though players will almost certainly need to part with a promising asset or two to get hold of him.

Losing Jamal Murray or Gary Harris is a pain. Still, shedding one is likely an essential step in acquiring the Nuggets' next franchise player.
