DeMar DeRozan agreed in late August 2026 to a one-year veteran minimum contract with the Denver Nuggets after the Sacramento Kings waived him from a partially guaranteed deal. The Nuggets' active recruitment, including direct outreach from Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon, highlighted a prominent bench or rotational role alongside their core, which appealed to the 37-year-old scorer seeking playoff contention over higher offers elsewhere. Denver's second-apron restrictions limited them to minimum-salary additions following the Peyton Watson sign-and-trade, positioning DeRozan as an efficient veteran addition with proven scoring and durability. While trader consensus heavily favors the Nuggets, any late complications with finalizing the agreement or unexpected roster shifts could still open pathways for other interested teams.
