Trade target: Coby White, G, Chicago Bulls

The Denver Nuggets, when healthy, is going to be a tough out in the Western Conference playoffs. And they’re going to be even tougher if they can solidify their bench with a move at the NBA Trade Deadline.

Additionally, knowing this team’s injury history, there’s some insurance that they need to be getting at the trade deadline. And one underrated player that they could explore targeting is Coby White, who has been buried over the last two seasons with the Chicago Bulls.

White has seen his role with the team diminish over the last couple of seasons but there’s no question that he still has the talent to be a very good payer for a very good team. Perhaps the Nuggets give him a fresh start and are able to utilize him a bit better.
