Denver Nuggets miss out on Khris Middleton as a potential buyout target, keeping the roster spot open down the stretch.
Middleton's decision reduces Denver's chance to add a veteran ball-handler and scorer in the playoffs.
Kyle Anderson had shown interest from Denver but signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves instead.
Anderson would have added size, defense, and ball-handling to Denver's bench if he had joined.
Jeremy Sochan was one of several teams interested before he joined the New York Knicks.
Sochan, a 6-foot-8 defender who can handle the ball, would have fit Denver’s bench but did not end up there.
The buyout deadline makes any market additions time-sensitive for playoff eligibility.
Denver has injuries and a need for depth, making the final roster spot crucial for a title run.
The market included several teams; Sochan's final choice was with the Knicks despite interest from multiple clubs.
The Nuggets continue to pursue buyout options as the season nears its end, seeking a veteran presence and size.
