Nuggets Forced to Move Watson | Milwaukee Bucks News

Denver’s financial crunch just got real after matching a lucrative offer for Spencer Jones, forcing them into the luxury tax’s second apron and pushing them to trade key players like Peyton Watson. Watson, who exploded offensively last season—averaging nearly 15 points and 22 points in 15 games while Jokic was sidelined—could be the perfect fit for Milwaukee, where he’d get more offensive freedom. With a potential $23M deal on the table, Denver may have to part with him now to avoid paying him in free agency. The Bucks could snag him at a discount, while Watson gets a chance to be a true scoring option. It’s a move that could save Denver money and give Milwaukee a spark—just in time for the playoffs.
