Gary Harris, Denver Nuggets

The Denver Nuggets have been up-and-down to start the 2020-21 NBA season, which could be viewed as somewhat of a surprise. Especially with the way that the team performed in the NBA’s restart playoffs. The Nuggets made a run to the Western Conference Finals and were considered a team on the come up.

However, the Nuggets are under .500 through the first nine games of the season and are currently sitting outside of the top 8 in the conference. While the Nuggets likely won’t move Jamal Murray, Nikola Jokic, or Michael Porter Jr., one player that could be in line to be moved is Gary Harris.

Harris is on an expiring contract after next season and has seen a bit of a downtick in his role with the team over the last season and a half. Harris is only averaging nine points on 41 percent shooting from the field this season.

As his role diminishes, so could his value to the team moving forward. Keep an eye on Gary Harris if the Nuggets don’t find a way to turn things around quickly.
