Immediately after trading Michael Porter Jr. for Cameron Johnson and creating some cap space under the first tax apron, the Denver Nuggets made a big move to sign Bruce Brown to a one-year deal.
According to Shams Charania of ESPN, the Nuggets are signing Brown to a one-year deal, reuniting with a key contributor of the 2023 championship squad.

Brown, 28, spent time with the Indiana Pacers, Toronto Raptors, and New Orleans Pelicans in each of the last two seasons before making what appears to be a very triumphant return to the Nuggets.
According to Sam Amick of The Athletic, the deal appears to be a minimum contract as well.

Brown averaged 11.5 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in 28.5 minutes per game for the Nuggets back in 2022-23. He was a big factor in the playoffs as a sixth man off the bench, allowing Denver to play with versatility on both sides of the ball and giving Denver the juice they needed. His aggressiveness on both ends of the floor, playmaking ability, defensive skills, and timely shooting proved extremely valuable.
Between the additions of Cam Johnson and Bruce Brown, this free agency period has already been a home run for the Nuggets. They got enough savings from the Porter trade that they also still have access to the Taxpayer MLE. They probably will still go into the first apron, but the moves don’t appear to be over for the Nuggets.
