NBA insider for DNVR sports Harrison Wind recently reported that Gordon Hayward has fans within the Denver Nuggets organization. He
mentioned Hayward while discussing ring-chasing players who could potentially help the Nuggets in the upcoming season.
“Gordon Hayward landed in Oklahoma City at the trade deadline and was supposed to steady the Thunder’s bench rotation but didn’t find much success. He averaged 17 minutes in 26 games at the end of the regular season but then fell out of the rotation during a second-round loss to the Clippers and failed to score a single point in 46 total playoff minutes (0-3 shooting). But I think there’s still good basketball here. He posted solid numbers in Charlotte to start the year — 14.5 points per game on shooting efficiency that was in line with his career averages. I know there are people within the Nuggets who are fans of Hayward.” Wind wrote about Hayward.
The Nuggets front office is interested in adding Hayward
There is speculation that the Nuggets front office is interested in adding Gordon Hayward to their roster. The Denver front office has shown support for Hayward, a potential free agent target, by offering him a promising position different from his time with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Despite encountering significant hurdles in recent months, there may be hope for Hayward as he enters free agency, with at least one franchise willing to offer him a more lucrative role than the one he held with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Over the last five seasons, Hayward, a 13-year veteran, has averaged 15.4 points per game.
After being eliminated in round 2 of the playoffs by the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Nuggets are looking to upgrade their roster for the next season. The recent trade proposal involves the Denver Nuggets sending Michael Porter Jr. to a Western Conference rival in exchange for an All-Star forward and former Rookie of the Year.
If Hayward signs with the Nuggets, he might boost the team’s offensive dynamics with his experience and versatility. With Gordon Hayward joining the club, the Nuggets may have an experienced player who can strengthen their offense and bring a new perspective to their style of play, potentially solidifying their spot among the league’s best teams.
