The Denver Post reported last week that the Nuggets were seeking a two-way rotation player and draft compensation, or a first-round pick for Hyland. Sources said the Nuggets felt they had traction on a first-round pick. The Nuggets (and other teams) could be waiting for other major dominoes to fall prior to Thursday’s deadline. Multiple league sources said Toronto, in addition to New Orleans and Minnesota, had registered some level of interest in Hyland.

MPJ, asked what he’d like to say about Bones *if* he’s traded:
“I know he’s gonna be a star.”
Mentioned guys like Jerami Grant, Jarred Vanderbilt and Malik Beasley as guys who found their roles elsewhere. – 12:11 AM

MPJ wasn’t the only one with nice things to say about Hyland’s handling of the situation. Here’s DeAndre Jordan: “Our job is to keep his spirts up, and he’s been great during this awkward time for him, for sure. He’s been extremely supportive of guys. …” – 2:58 PM
