The Milwaukee Bucks are reportedly among several teams involved in sign-and-trade discussions for Denver Nuggets forward Peyton Watson.<\/p>\n
One of the main obstacles in negotiations appears to be Milwaukee’s reluctance to include a first-round pick in a potential deal. Denver is believed to be looking for a return built around first-round draft capital, young players or a combination of both.<\/p>\n
If the Bucks remain unwilling to surrender a first-rounder, they could instead be forced to include players from their current rotation to make a deal possible.<\/p>\n
One name that could potentially attract Denver’s interest is Jaime Jaquez, who joined Milwaukee earlier this summer as part of the trade that sent Giannis Antetokounmpo away from the Bucks.<\/p>\n
Milwaukee is not the only team monitoring Watson’s situation. The Atlanta Hawks, Cleveland Cavaliers and LA Clippers have also been linked to the forward.<\/p>\n
A return to Denver remains another possibility, with the Nuggets reportedly still considering re-signing Watson rather than completing a sign-and-trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
