Denver Nuggets receive: De’Andre Hunter and Bogdan Bogdanović

Atlanta Hawks receive: Michael Porter Jr., Zeke Nnaji and a 2031 first-round pick swap

Jamal Murray’s return to form has presumably lessened the need for Denver to shop for a No. 2 option, but the Nuggets could still use their Zach LaVine trade package to make their perimeter group deeper and better balanced at both ends.

This is, admittedly, buying high on Hunter, but he’s worth the splurge if he’s scoring (19.2 points per game) and shooting (40.3 percent from three) at these rates. Meanwhile, the addition of Bogdanović, a national teammate of Nikola Jokić for Serbia, could jolt Denver’s reserve group, which ranks just 24th in offensive efficiency.
