Nuggets Nets trade: Porter Johnson Jr. swaps club

Just now, famous reporter Shams revealed that the Nuggets and the Nets reached a big deal. The Nuggets sent Michael Porter and the 2032 unprotected first-round draft pick in exchange for the Nets' Cameron Johnson. The Nuggets' move is obviously to get rid of Porter Jr.'s big contract, and Johnson's joining can also fill the gap in Porter Jr.'s departure. The Nets value this unprotected first-round pick, so it is not ruled out that the Nets buy out Porter Jr. Both parties to this transaction can be said to have their own needs.
