Knicks Trading Mikal Bridges To The Denver Nuggets

Trade rumors suggest the New York Knicks might consider moving Mikal Bridges, with Mitchell Robinson also mentioned in discussions. According to sources, Bridges could be traded for the right offer, sparking analysis of a potential deal with the Denver Nuggets.

A speculative trade scenario proposes the Nuggets acquiring Bridges in exchange for sending Aaron Gordon and a 2026 first-round pick to the Knicks. The arrangement is viewed as mutually beneficial, with Gordon—a 29-year-old playoff performer—aligning with the Knicks’ championship timeline despite Bridges being the superior player.

For Denver, the 28-year-old Bridges would address a positional need at small forward, providing a significant upgrade over current starter Bruce Brown and effectively filling the void left by Michael Porter Jr. This move would bolster the Nuggets’ starting lineup while optimizing Brown’s role as a bench contributor.
