One NBA writer has named Reggie Bullock, Jae’Sean Tate and Mo Bamba as the Denver Nuggets’ top trade targets. Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report thinks the Nuggets should try to trade for Bullock, Tate or Bamba.
“Even hitting the trade market is tricky, since the Nuggets have a pricey roster and some unpaid draft debts,” Buckley wrote in his latest NBA trade column. “But the bargain-bin offers some good buys every now and then. Bullock pairs serviceable defense with a three-ball that’s found its mark 38.3 percent of the time the past three seasons. Tate shares some similarities with Brown in terms of playing bigger than his size, defending multiple positions and creating for others. Bamba still offers an intriguing blend of spacing and rim protection, even if there isn’t much else to his game.”
Bullock averaged 7.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists for the Dallas Mavericks last season while shooting 38.0% from beyond the arc. He was traded to the San Antonio Spurs this offseason.

Finally, Bamba played for the Orlando Magic and Los Angeles Lakers last season. He averaged 6.6 points and 4.6 rebounds while shooting 48.5% from the floor, 38.7% from beyond the arc and 66.1% from the foul line. Bamba signed with the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason in free agency.
