Nuggets' lone trade deadline move suddenly got a lot more important

The Denver Nuggets were relatively quiet at the deadline, trading Hunter Tyson and a second-round pick to the Nets for a second-round pick. The move was more significant than it seemed, as not only did they duck the luxury tax, but it was followed by news that they'll convert Spencer Jones' two-way contract. His presence became even more important on Thursday, as Tony Jones of The Athletic reported that Peyton Watson suffered a Grade 2 hamstring strain.

On Friday, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype reported that Watson will be re-evaluated in four weeks, giving fans a timeline as to when he could return.
