Rodney Hood is drawing no shortage of interest on the trade market. With the Utah Jazz seemingly not-so-thrilled about footing the bill for his next contract, the 25-year-old continues to be one of the most talked-about names on the NBA’s chopping block. Leading into Thursday’s deadline, no fewer than five teams are trying to land [...]

Tyreke Evans has more likely than not played his last game for the Memphis Grizzlies. The team removed its standout wing from the lineup in advance of Wednesday’s loss to the Indiana Pacers. And the relatively sudden timing was no coincidence. Memphis is preparing to trade Evans, who will hit free agency again after this [...]

After missing the past six games with a left ankle sprain, Nikola Jokic was medially cleared to rejoin the Denver Nuggets for their Wednesday night bout with the Boston Celtics. But that wasn’t good enough for Mike Malone. As Denver’s head honcho told reporters following the 124-118 loss, he remains concerned that Jokic isn’t mentally [...]

Denver Nuggets head coach Mike Malone was not thrilled after his team’s loss to the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday. Indeed, the Nuggets were playing without Nikola Jokic and Paul Millsap, their two best players. But the 123-114 letdown drops them to 3-9 on the road, a record he doesn’t deem worthy of a playoff [...]

Nikola Jokic has missed each of the Denver Nuggets ‘past two games after spraining his left ankle during a Nov. 30 victory over the Chicago Bulls. If Monday’s drubbing at the hands of the Dallas Mavericks is any indication, they cannot afford to play without him for much longer. And yet, if Jokic’s own comments [...]

Sunday night’s loss to the Los Angeles Lakers ended up being a disaster of epic proportions for the Denver Nuggets. Not only were Nikola Jokic and head coach Mike Malone ejected for having words with the referees, but Paul Millsap, one of this past summer’s primary free-agent prizes, left early with a wrist injury. He [...]

When the Phoenix Suns made Eric Bledsoe available—or when they were forced to make him available, whichever way you prefer to say it—two teams stood out as the best potential suitors: The Milwaukee Bucks, and the Denver Nuggets. One of these two, the Bucks, ended up snagging him for what still appears to be pennies [...]

Eric Bledsoe has played his last game as a member of the Phoenix Suns—at least, that’s what the Phoenix Suns say. One day after the point guard basically requested a trade on Twitter, the team sent him home. General manager Ryan McDonough said Bledsoe had an excuse for the “I don’t wanna be here” tweet—saying [...]

Gary Harris had a very good season for the Nuggets last year, showing he may be one of the best young shooting guards in the NBA with his ability to score the basketball and shoot the three-point shot efficiently. The Nuggets are re-paying him (that is an understatement) to the tune of a new four-year, [...]

Gary Harris is about to get paid. For real this time. The fourth-year combo guard/safety-net 3 is eligible to sign an extension before the start of the regular season, at which time, if he hasn’t inked one, he’ll gear up for restricted free agency next summer. The general consensus all summer has been that the [...]
