The Nuggets played without starting point guard Jamal Murray, who sat out due to inflammation in his left knee. Given their recent schedule, the team decided getting Murray off his feet was wise. The team has been playing without guard Russell Westbrook, who’s been sidelined by a hamstring injury.

In this new trade idea from Vishwesha Kumar of Fadeaway World, the Nuggets part with Michael Porter Jr. and land some strong depth for the playoff run. The deal would be between Denver and the Atlanta Hawks, sending De'Andre Hunter to the Nuggets.

The Denver Nuggets have been quiet off the court as the trade deadline approaches, but their play on the court has been very loud. On Wednesday night, the Nuggets won their fourth game in a row with a dominant second half to beat the New Orleans Pelicans 144-119.
