NBA free agency began on Monday evening, and one of the first reported trades will mean big changes for the Denver Nuggets.

The Nuggets' desire to turn Porter Jr. into a better two-way fit for the roster was well known, but no one was quite sure if they'd find a team willing to take on the remaining $79 million on his deal.

Porter Jr. will help give the Nets some spacing and shooting to help their young ball handlers develop as Johnson exits. This is a perfect trade for the Nets after a highly questionable draft for the franchise.
