· 3 pulledThe Nuggets are signing Marvin Bagley III to a one-year veteran minimum contract, league sources told The Denver Post late Wednesday night, in their first roster addition of the 2026 offseason.
Bagley, 27, will earn around $3.5 million but carry a $2.45 million cap hit.
A player's minimum salary increases with his service time in the league, but the amount of his salary that counts against the cap remains the same, as not to incentivize teams to overlook more experienced free agents.
