Agent Bill Duffy spoke to Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe on Saturday about his client, restricted free agent Marko Jaric, a 6-foot-7 Los Angeles Clippers combo guard.

"(Denver's) interest is high," Duffy said. "Jeff Weltman (Denver's assistant general manager who then was with the Clippers) drafted Marko (in the second round in 2000) and is a big fan."

The Clippers can match any offer for Jaric, whom Duffy said soon might visit Denver. Vandeweghe did not immediately return a message .
