Nuggets have traded for KCP

Earlier today, we saw KCP be traded to the Nuggets from the Wizards after they had their eye on KCP since last season’s Trade Deadline. This included Ish Smith and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope going to Denver; for Washington, they received Will Barton and Monte Morris.

This trade was all player-focused and no picks and/or cash was involved. Like I mentioned before, Caldwell-Pope was high on the radar for Denver – which made it easy for Washington to get rid of him. It is also very important to detail that Caldwell-Pope is on an expiring contract.

It should also be mentioned that Monte Morris is on an expiring contract as well. We should most likely see, when the time comes, the Nuggets give an extension to KCP since they wanted him so desperately.
