Wilson Chandler, Draft Pick Reportedly Traded to 76ers
The Denver Nuggets reached an agreement Tuesday to trade small forward Wilson Chandler to the Philadelphia 76ers.
Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported the Sixers will also receive a future second-round draft pick, while the Nuggets clear Chandler's $12.8 million contract in an effort to dodge the luxury tax.
Meanwhile, Denver ends up saving $49.8 million by taking the forward's salary off its books and reducing its luxury-tax total from $51.3 million to $14.3 million, per ESPN's Bobby Marks.
The 31-year-old is coming off a down year with the Nuggets during which he averaged 10.0 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists across 74 appearances. His scoring dropped 5.7 points per game from the 2016-17 season.
