The Dallas Mavericks are reportedly interested in acquiring Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, but the Denver Nuggets are uninterested in assisting a sign-and-trade.
at the helm, having defensive versatility without sacrificing shooting ability remains essential. They remain a team to watch as they pursue creative avenues to add talent.
One new option the Mavericks have become linked to is Kentavious Caldwell-Pope of the Denver Nuggets. He is increasingly expected to leave the team after he declines a $15.4 million player option ahead of free agency. The Nuggets' front office has been prepared for Caldwell Pope's departure, with general manager Calvin Booth discussing the matter on Thursday with reporters.
"When you look at some of the teams that have been good in the past, they had to find a way to replace fourth fifth starters, sixth men off the bench and still keep rolling," Booth said. "It would be nice if he's back; we'd have a lot of continuity together. But all the stuff I've looked at with lineup stuff and everything, Christian Braun is one of the best net rating guys in the league — as is KCP.
"League sources say that there would be mutual interest in free agency between Caldwell-Pope and the Dallas Mavericks … but Dallas could only get into Caldwell-Pope's projected salary range via sign-and-trade," Stein wrote. "It is believed that the Nuggets do not want to participate in a sign-and-trade with an in-conference rival — Dallas just supplanted Denver as the NBA's reigning Western Conference champion — even if that means losing Caldwell-Pope without compensation.
