Nuggets Unlikely To Use $3.2M TPE By Thursday

The Nuggets have a $3.2 million trade exception from last January's Chucky Atkins trade to Oklahoma City that expires Thursday.

Two sources with knowledge of the Nuggets' thinking said it's unlikely that they will use the trade "credit."

The Nuggets also still possess a larger exception worth $3.7 million that's available until Aug. 9, from last August's Steven Hunter trade with Memphis.
