Greg Buckner and the Nuggets would like to get a deal done, but both parties are being patient, as the mutual interest is clear.

?He wants to stay in Denver," said Buckner's agent Steve Kauffman in an interview with RealGM's Christopher Reina on Wednesday.  "The GM (Kiki Vandeweghe) wants him there, it is just a matter of how their cap situation plays out.?

Buckner in in "high demand" by about four clubs, as he has become one of the NBA's best perimeter defenders.

"With a player like Greg Buckner, only the better teams understand his value," said Kauffman.

Kauffman also represents defensive specialist Ben Wallace.
