The Nuggets have decided not to activate the final year's $2.3 million option. Vlatko Cancar, and the Slovenian ended up on the market. However, that didn't necessarily mean he was going to leave Denver.
A possible new contract was being considered between the player, who won the title in 2023, and the Colorado franchise. That's what he hopes for in any case.
“I'm still waiting for the Nuggets' decision. We'll see.”he said for Eurohoops. “Yes, there is a scenario in which I come back, and that's what I want. My goal is to come back. I hope there will be room.”
It would be a good way to pick up where he left off in his career as Vlatko Cancar did not play last season, hit hard by a torn ligament in his left knee ahead of the 2023 World Cup.
The power forward also returned to the courts with his national team during the Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Greece. “It feels good to be back. I've been really bad and that needs to change quickly.”he delivers after his 0/7 shooting against New Zealand. “I was overcome by my emotions when I was taking my shots. I wanted them to get into it. Physically, I feel good. I have no apprehension.”
