New Nuggets trade acquisition Jonas Valanciunas could leave for Greece in wild turn
NY Post
Don’t go buying that Jonas Valanciunas Nuggets swag just yet.
The veteran big man is “close” to joining Greek team Panathinaikos in a shocking turn after Denver agreed to acquire him from Sacramento earlier this week, according to basketnews.com.
Valanciunas, 33, reportedly has been offered a three-year deal worth roughly $13 million per season.
The Nuggets would pay him $10.395 million this upcoming season and have a team option worth $10 million for the 2026-27 season.
Valanciunas could seek a buyout to head to Greece, per NBA Insider Marc Stein. However, doing so would put the two NBA teams involved in this transaction in a tough spot.
The Nuggets landed the former first-round pick in a trade that sent Dario Saric to the Kings, but the deal cannot be completed until the new league year begins July 6.
