NBA Trade Rumors:Denver Nuggets' Kenneth Faried Moving to Brooklyn Nets Confirmed? Faried The Missing Link For Nets' Big Three?

Kenneth Faried has been associated with several NBA teams this offseason. According to NBA trade rumors, Denver Nuggets is eager to part ways with their power forward and this has made other teams interested with Faried happy. So on what team will Kenneth Faried be playing in the upcoming NBA season?

According to Mobile & Apps, Kenneth Faried is heading to Brooklyn Nets. The player is the number one priority of the team. However, the trade deal between Nets and Denver Nuggets is still not final because Brooklyn Nets reportedly lack the assets to acquire Faried.

According to Sports Rageous, Brooklyn Nets is desperate to sign the Nuggets' power forward because they are planning to form their big three, which includes Brook Lopez and Jeremy Lin. Kenneth Faried is the missing puzzle for Nets to complete their big three.

The report suggests that the Nuggets have been trading for Kenneth Faried for a while now and this is the perfect time for Brooklyn Nets to trade for the player. Kenneth Faried and Brook Lopez would make a power duo in the frontcourt. The pair could be one of the best big men combinations in the NBA league.

If Brooklyn Nets and Denver Nuggets pursue the trade, it will help Nets financially. If Nets sign Kenneth Faried, they will not exceed their cap because Faried is only expected to make over $12 million this NBA season. At the time, Brooklyn Nets have $17 million in their cap space, which they could potentially use to acquire the Milwaukee Bucks power forward George Monroe and Kenneth Faried.

However, for Nuggets, Nets is not the ideal partner for a trade. As mentioned, Nets have limited resources and might not afford the trade to acquire Kenneth Faried if Nuggets ask for more talents in return.

Will Denver Nuggets pursue the trade with Brooklyn Nets for Kenneth Faried even if Nets is not an ideal trade partner? If they do, who do you think will Nets send to Nuggets just to acquire Faried?
