The Denver Nuggets had an on-court incident with Andre Miller and head coach Brian Shaw at the beginning of January and since then trade rumors have been swirling about the still deactivated Andre Miller. At the time it sounded like Miller would be moved quickly but as we sit just the days away from the trade deadline, the Nuggets still technically have Miller on roster.

That could change though, as Marc J. Spears from Yahoo! Sports writes the Nuggets are a team to watch when it comes to where they’ll move Miller before February 20th.

"The Nuggets will be one of the teams to watch as the trade deadline approaches with veteran point guard Andre Miller still waiting to be dealt."

With a slew of injuries across their roster, including a season ending ACL injury to Nate Robinson which has left the team scrambling for point guard help, there was the thought of activating Miller and using him in the lineup. That seems unlikely as a trade will almost certainly happen before the deadline passes this year.
