• Report: Nuggets open to trading Lawson (CSNNE).Multiple league sources told CSNNE.com on Monday that Denver is looking to trade Lawson, who ranks among the league leaders in assists (10.1) per game this season.​

• Blazers reportedly eyeing two Nuggets (CSNNW).Here is what’s known: the Blazers like Afflalo, but would prefer Chandler. Afflalo is known as a decent locker room guy, can knockdown an open shot, and he’s a veteran, which Terry Stotts likes. Should the Nuggets asking price seem fair, and Chandler is a no-go, it won’t be a surprise to see Afflalo in black and red.

•Bulls reportedly targeting shooter (Chicago Tribune).

Bulls like roster but would add shooter. Won't trade a big for a small. Won't trade future 1st. Will check buyout list for open roster spot.
