It is also likely that the Lawson deal would further be sweetened with the inclusion of power forward Kenneth Faried.
By looking to do away with point guard Ty Lawson, it is likely that the Denver Nuggets are already working to make room for the possible acquisition of point guard Jeremy Lin from the free agency this coming off-season.
This notion is further reinforced by the fact that the Mile High basketball franchise is looking to take in Mike D’Antoni as its new head coach for the next NBA season.
D’Antoni was the coach of Jeremy Lin during his short-lived Linsanity days with the New York Knicks during the 2011-12 NBA season. In an interview a couple of week ago, D’Antoni said that he would like to have Jeremy Lin in his team if he is given the opportunity to do so.
With D’Antoni just awaiting for his official appointment as the new head coach of the Denver Nuggets, it is likely that his first order of business is to get a point guard for his team, whom he has known for some time. And there’s no other point guard in the free agency whom he knows better than Jeremy Lin.
