According to the report of ESPN authoritative reporter Shams Charania, the Sacramento Kings completed a deal with the Denver Nuggets. The King traded Jonas Valanciunas to the Nuggets and obtained Dario Saric from the Nuggets. Then, Denver local media MileHighSports reporter Ryan Blackburn updated his social media account and praised the deal. Blackburn wrote: Valanciunas is the candidate who has been considered by the Nuggets for a long time. They immediately used the special case just obtained from the swap deal between Michael Porter Jr. and Cameron Johnson to win Valanciunas, and they added an outstanding replacement center behind Nikola Jokic.
In the NBA regular season this season, Sharic played a total of 16 games in 82 games, averaging 13.1 minutes per game, averaging 3.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 0.9 turnovers and 1.2 fouls, shooting percentage of 36.2%, three-point shooting percentage of 26.9%, and free throw shooting percentage of 70%. Sharic didn't even get any chance to play during the playoffs. Valanciunas was sent to the Kings by the Washington Wizards in a deal before the season's trade deadline. After joining the Kings, Valanciunas made a total of 32 appearances in the NBA regular season, averaging 16.9 minutes per game, averaging 8.7 points, 7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.6 blocks, and 1 turnover and 2.6 fouls. He shot 55.6%, three-point shooting percentage 10%, and free throw shooting percentage 84.7%.
Sharic's performance this season can be said to be at the disaster level. His efficiency on the offensive end is a mess, his scoring ability, organizational and tandem ability have not been shown, and his performance on the defensive end is even worse. Therefore, even though the Nuggets are almost no one available on the bench, Sharic still has no chance to get into the rotation lineup. In contrast, although Valanciunas is relatively limited in playing time, at least he can play a role in scoring at the basket and rebounding protection, and he can also play his role well in limited playing time. Although he is not young, he is still very useful to the team.
I have to say that the operations of the Nuggets Uniform Team this summer are really impressive. They only used one first-round pick to send Porter's premium contract away, and exchanged for Johnson, who was no worse than Porter's level, and the deal also reduced the team's total salary to below the No. 1 rich line. They then signed Bruce Brown with a basic salary contract, and the team's bench strength was further improved. Now with Valanciunas joining, we finally don’t need to see DeAndre Jordan as a substitute next season. It can only be said that the Nuggets' interim general manager Ben Tenzer is indeed much better than his predecessor Calvin Booth in terms of ability. He simply helped the team out of the quagmire in one go.
