ESPN famous reporter Shams reported that the Nuggets sent Michael Porter Jr. to the Nets to exchange for Cameron Johnson in 2032.
media person Kong Dexin commented on this, the original text is as follows:
card contracts must be sold, and it will not delay the lottery next year.
In the middle of last season, the Nets' asking price for the card was multiple first rounds, but the market was not as good as expected. This summer should be the most suitable node for trading, and the Nets must still be looking for two first rounds. What I finally got from the Nuggets was Porter Jr. + 32 years of unprotected first round. That first round was the only first round that the Nuggets can trade at present. A very distant lottery ticket is basically the next team building cycle of the Nuggets. Compared to the two more known low picks, this first round is a gamble.
Potter Jr. is more interesting. He has two years left to contract with nearly 80 million, 38.33 million next season, and Kayo has two years left to contract with 21.6 million next season. The Nets' operational idea this summer is to exchange for draft picks. This is the same, but it is a combination of sending away cards. Porter Jr. can play next season and does not delay losing. Next summer, he will be a contract of 40 million expiration. If he is well-made, there may not be no trading market.
It feels like a deal that both parties can accept. The Nuggets save a lot of money + activate reinforcement space + supplement healthier and more stable shots. The Nets are taking the draft pick and waiting to see if they can get another win over Porter.
