US media commented on the Nuggets after the deal: They return strongly, and Western opponents are about to tremble

The Nuggets, who ended in the Western Conference semi-finals last season, reached two signings, sent Porter Jr. away, and received Cameron Johnson and Bruce Brown. US media ClutchPoints has made an outlook on the Nuggets after the transaction.

ClutchPoints wrote: Since winning the championship in 2023, Jokic and the Nuggets he led have performed worse and worse. It's a cruel reality of the Labor Agreement, but wasting the golden season of one of the greatest players we've ever seen is also unacceptable. Jokic has received very little help, but he still plays seven games with this year's championship Thunder. Now, the Nuggets realize this and make changes.

According to Shams, the Nuggets got Cameron Johnson in the trade to send Porter Jr. to the Nets. Not only that, Bruce Brown agreed to sign a one-year contract with his old club. Johnson is more offensive and defensive than Porter Jr., and Bruce Brown is skilled and he will bring it all back to Denver.

With the strong support of core players such as Jokic, Gordon and Murray, the Nuggets have upgraded their lineup, and now the Western Conference opponents are afraid of them again. The Nuggets are back with a strong return!
