Could be something, could be nothing:
Denver will create a TPE of $2,161,152 when they complete the trade with Detroit. The Nuggets will acquire Rodney McGruder via the Minimum Exception, create a TPE equal that of Bol Bol’s entire salary. – 3:49 PM

Rodney McGruder is a 6’4″ 205 pound shooting guard who’s mostly known for his defensive work. He’s a career 33% three-point shooter and is down to 23.8% in a tough season with the Pistons so far.
