Nuggets Trade Idea Flips Jamal Murray for Former MVP to Pair With Nikola Jokic originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Denver Nuggets have maneuvered their way to a successful offseason since NBA free agency officially began on June 30, and they may still have another move or two to make.

Three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic has decided to delay a contract extension with the Denver Nuggets this summer, a person with knowledge of the matter told The Associated Press on Tuesday night. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because neither Jokic nor the Nuggets have addressed the matter publicly.

Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic, eligible as of Tuesday for a contract extension, will wait until next summer to negotiate a new deal, the Denver Post and ESPN reported.
