Beasley's average was 7.3 points per game for Denver on the year, and Hernangomez averaged 3.0 points per game on the season. I had been previously told they were to be free agents this summer.
Before the report was finalized, another player was added to Denver's haul, G Shabazz Napier.
The final report confirmed the Nuggets would now have four new players, Green, Bates-Diop, Napier, and Vonleh, and they had traded Beasley, Hernangomez, and Vanderbilt. They would also have a first-round pick.
The NBA trade deadline is Thursday, February 6, at 1 p.m. MST.
