End of suspense for Vlatko Cancar. According to Hoopshypethe Nuggets winger will continue his adventure in Colorado. Several American media outlets report that this is a minimum wage contract, or around three million dollars.
No surprise for the interested party who wanted to return and whose Nuggets had declined their offer “team option”The Slovenian, who was initially supposed to earn $2.3 million next season, had therefore arrived on the market as an unprotected free agent.
In competition with Dario Saric
The 27-year-old has not played at all this season, having torn a ligament in his left knee during a warm-up match with Slovenia ahead of the 2023 World Cup.
A real disaster for this winger who, year after year, gained minutes in Mike Malone's rotation. NBA champion with the Nuggets in 2023, he averaged 5 points that year in the regular season, but hardly played during the playoffs.
Team option : possibility for a team to activate (or not) the last year of the contract of one of its players, so that he finishes his lease or becomes free agent one year in advance.
