Denver Nuggets Make Critical Decision On 24-Year-Old Forward

The Denver Nuggets made a decision on DaRon Holmes’ rookie-scale deal on Monday, November 3. According to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, the Nuggets are planning to move forward without Holmes beyond the 2026-2027 NBA season, unless they strike a new deal in free agency next summer. “The Denver Nuggets declined their rookie scale team option on DaRon Holmes worth $5.55 million for the 2027-28 season, league sources told @hoopshype. Holmes was the 22nd pick of the 2024 NBA Draft. Holmes will become an unrestricted free agent in 2027,” Scotto reported on X.
