The Denver Nuggets are planning to sign D-League L.A. guard Jamaal Franklin for the remainder of the season, league sources tell RealGM.
Franklin was drafted out of San Diego State by the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Denver Nuggets have claimed Shavlik Randolph off waivers, a league source tells RealGM.
Randolph was waived this week by the Boston Celtics to create a roster spot for Chris Babb.
The Denver Nuggets discussed trades involving Ty Lawson at the deadline and sources said they sought multiple first round picks.
The Utah Jazz will own a lottery pick and could include another asset to move the needle for the Nuggets to trade Lawson.
Lawson is just 27 and has experience playing at high altitude.
The Sacramento Kings and Boston Celtics could also make a play for Lawson.
Billy Donovan is interested in leaving Florida for the NBA more than ever before, according to sources.
Donovan figures to draw interest from multiple NBA teams this offseason.
Donovan recently agreed to a one-year contract extension to stay with the Gators through the 2020 season, according to multiple media reports, but the contract contains a buyout for a mere $500,000 if an NBA opportunity arises.
Donovan rejected serious interest from the Minnesota Timberwolves and Cleveland Cavaliers last offseason.
The Denver Nuggets and Orlando Magic currently employ interim coaches and both are expected to have Donovan on their list of targets.
No longer is Donovan barred from considering NBA offers as he was from 2007-08 through 2012-13, after he agreed to a noncompete clause spanning five years in exchange for being released from the contract he signed with the Magic.
