After a crazy start to 2018 NBA free agency, the Denver Nuggets added to the intrigue, sending Wilson Chandler to the Philadelphia 76ers. Here are NBA Trade Grades for both sides.

The 2018 NBA free agency period got off to a crazy start. From LeBron James deciding to join the Los Angeles Lakers within the first 24 hours, to DeMarcus Cousins teaming up with the Golden State Warriors in the ensuing 24 hours after that, there’s been no shortage of action.

On day three, the Denver Nuggets decided to get in on the action, this time via trade. According to ESPN‘s Adrian Wojnarowski, they’ll be sending small forward Wilson Chandler to the Philadelphia 76ers, along with future draft compensation.

Sports Illustrated‘s Jake Fischer clarified Denver would be sending a 2021 second-rounder and the rights to swap second-rounders in 2022 to Philly, while the Nuggets would receive cash considerations in return.

Yahoo! Sports‘ Shams Charania initially reported the trade talks were heating up.

The Sixers are adding quality talent on the wing, while the Nuggets are aiming for some much-needed cap relief. The question is, how does each team fare in this seemingly one-sided swap?

In order to sort it out, here’s a look at NBA Trade Grades for both sides.
