The Denver Nuggets have traded Dario Saric to the Sacramento Kings for Jonas Valancinuas. The Nuggets used the taxpayer midlevel on Saric last season, but he quickly fell out of their rotation.
Valanciunas signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Washington Wizards last offseason and was subsequently traded to the Kings at the deadline. Valanciunas will give the Nuggets rotation minutes at center behind Nikola Jokic.
