Denver Nuggets

If Kyle Lowry wants to go to a place where he’d be THE GUY, similar to his role with the Toronto Raptors, there’s no better place for him than the Denver Nuggets. Even though Denver is probably the lesser of the teams on this list (excluding the Sixers), they are one of the most exciting young teams in the NBA.

Led by Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Danilo Gallinari (who is also a free agent this summer), the Nuggets really turned heads this season. Adding a player like Lowry could be the difference in the Nuggets finishing 9th in the conference to top 5.

Now, the Nuggets likely won’t be contending to win the West anytime soon, but they’re only going to get better with every passing year. And adding a star like Lowry could help escalate that developmental process.
