The information has proven to be accurate.
DeMar DeRozan is set to play for the Denver Nuggets next season. ESPN sources have confirmed that he is close to signing a one-year deal worth $3.9 million.
The veteran shooting guard was one of the most attractive free agents on the market after confirming his departure from the Sacramento Kings.
After a number of twists and turns that had him linked with the Toronto Raptors or the Los Angeles Lakers, he ultimately chose the Nuggets’ project, where he will share the locker room with MVP Nikola Jokic.
The trade of Peyton Watson to the Cavaliers had made DeRozan’s arrival Colorado’s top priority.
Last season he appeared in 77 official games, averaging 18.4 points, 4.2 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game.
