Kentavious Caldwell-Pope on recent Nuggets playoff run: We had no gas, we felt like the Lakers should have beaten us

League sources told ESPN that the Nuggets were interested in adding Westbrook if he were waived. The Nuggets can use a veteran backup point guard who can provide energy and defend after Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Reggie Jackson left in free agency. “I think we need some help in the backcourt,” Nuggets general manager Calvin Booth told Altitude TV on Tuesday. “We are going to try to continue to identify that and survey the market. We have a roster spot left and I think if we can add a high-level guard, we will be happy with that.” -via ESPN / July 18, 2024

Outside of George and two-time champion wing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, the only other major beneficiaries on the open market who changed teams were Tobias Harris — whom Detroit, sources said, believes can serve as a foundational leader for the Pistons’ rebuild from the NBA cellar — and Isaiah Hartenstein, who departed New York for an absolute bag from Oklahoma City. -via Yahoo!
