Jamal for Luka confirmed
It’s from this podcast. He’s promoting his book and shared multiple new Nuggets stories: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/brian-windhorst-the-hoop-collective/id293376147?i=1000677302824
Not surprised, it was one of the best buy opportunities of all time. A literal generational prospect going 3rd because of non-US bias.
Wonder what our team construction would look like today if we had Luka and Jokic.
Be prepared for the “let’s trade for Luka” posts to be as numerous as the “let’s trade for Brad Beal” posts were a few years back
I’m surprised we couldn’t beat the Dallas offer, but I think the Hawks wanted Trae and we didn’t have the capital to make that happen.

This is why you shouldn’t follow these shitty aggregators like NBA Central, and instead go to primary sources. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/development-of-jokic-wemby-shocking-trades-that/id293376147?i=1000677302824
Singer is promoting his Jokic book, which is where this story comes from. His book comes out next month. *That’s* why it’s being “leaked” right now.
Am I the only one who wouldn’t want 2024 Luka on my team?
I respect the skills, but the zero-effort defense and the entitled baby shtick is repellant.
Zeke for Luka who says no
It looks to me that Luka is not very motivated this season. Is there a chance to trade Jamal (plus some other options) for him?
sooner or later the jokic luka team up could happen and it’s not gonna be in dallas
Should have been Jamal…
This sub would hate Luka so much if he were a Nugget.
