NBA insider Marc Stein has reported that Vasilije Micic, a Serbian point guard and close friend of Nikola Jokic, is a potential trade target for the Denver Nuggets. Micic, who recently played for the Charlotte Hornets, has a contract that includes a $7.7 million salary for the current season and a team option for the next, but acquiring him would push the Nuggets into a restrictive salary cap situation. The Nuggets, who failed to defend their championship last season, are looking to bolster their roster, particularly in the wake of Jamal Murray's struggles during the Paris Olympics. During the Olympics, Micic averaged 13.3 points and 4.5 assists, contributing to Serbia's bronze medal success. Despite the challenges of fitting Micic into their roster due to salary cap constraints, his addition could provide vital depth to the Nuggets' backcourt. The Nuggets are motivated to reunite Jokic with a familiar teammate as they aim for a stronger season ahead.
