One of the Nuggets' big moves in free agency was trading Dario Saric for Jonas Valanciunas. But Friday afternoon things got complicated when reports came out he intended to go play in Europe. He is still under contract with the Nuggets and they have apparently made it clear they intend for Valanciunas to play for the club next season. So what's the latest with Big Val? And how could the Nuggets pivot if things go south? What free agent options are still out there? Adam Mares and Brendan Vogt come to you LIVE from the DNVR Bar to break down everything you need to know in this edition of the DNVR Nuggets Podcast!
