Andre Iguodala was non-committal about his future with the Nuggets.
"I know what type of potential this team has, so that won't weight heavily on my decision," he said. "I definitely want to win a championship. At the same time, it's a business, but I don't think it's a factor." Iguodala is expected to opt out of his current deal in search of a multi-year deal, and the Nuggets have already said it's a priority to bring him back. May 17 - 9:33 AM

Nuggets GM Masai Ujiri referred to Andre Iguodala's omission from the All-Defensive team as "mind-boggling."

Iguodala wasn't on the first- or second-team. In fact, he's never made the either team in his career -- which is interesting because the voting is done by the league's coaches. The wings that were voted on this year were LeBron James, Tony Allen, Avery Bradley and Paul George. "It's just shocking that he continues to be overlooked as a world-class defender in our league," Ujiri said. "I honestly thought he should be in the conversation for defensive player of the year, let alone first or even second team all-defense."

GM Masai Ujiri said Thursday he's "very optimistic" the Nuggets will be able to keep Andre Iguodala in Denver.

Iguodala will likely opt out of the final year of his contract, but it's no secret Ujiri wants to re-sign Iggy for the long term. The Nuggets will likely have to pony up in money and years to keep Iguodala, who would have plenty of willful suitors if he made it onto the open market.

GM Masai Ujiri confirmed the Nuggets would like to keep Andre Iguodala long term.

Iguodala is expected to opt out of the final year on his deal, but Denver wants him back. "Andre was a great fit, we felt," Ujiri said. "He brings every aspect of the game to the table, be it defending, passing, leadership and scoring sometimes. For us, he grew with the team. I think he saw that. He’s a good priority for us."

Andre Iguodala is expected to opt out of the final year of his contract.

Iguodala is on the books for a hefty $16M in 2013-14. But at age 29, he'll exercise an opt-out clause, become an unrestricted free agent and go hunting for one more mammoth deal. As one of the league's premier wing defenders and an excellent distributor from the small forward spot, he'll get it. The Nuggets have the financial flexibility to pay Iguodala, but it's uncertain if they'll be his strongest suitor. He'll test the market.

Andre Iguodala filled the stat sheet in a season-ending loss to the Warriors on Thursday, scoring 24 points with nine boards, six assists, one steal and five 3-pointers on 7-of-18 shooting.

He turned in a huge game and the Nuggets would have been blown out without Iggy tonight. His 3-point shooting really picked up in this series with an average of 2.8 makes per game and he shot exactly 50 percent from the field. He's made just 0.9 triples per game in his career and the Warriors allowed him to get several open looks. The Nuggets will have their core back for next year.
May 3 - 1:47 AM

Andre Iguodala hit 10-of-17 shots and three 3-pointers on his way to 25 points, 12 rebounds, seven assists, two steals and a block as the Nuggets won 107-100 at home to pull their series with Golden State to a 3-2 deficit.

This is the kind of line Iguodala's fantasy owners were hoping to see more often this season, and his big night is probably the only reason the Nuggets were able to hang on for the win after blowing a big lead to the Dubs. Ty Lawson added 19 points and 10 assists, hitting just 5-of-14 shots, and Kenneth Faried came through with a double-double with 13 points, 10 boards, two steals and a block. Game 6 is Thursday at Golden State.
Apr 30 - 10:54 PM

Andre Iguodala scored a team-high 28 points on 11-of-17 shooting vs. Portland on Sunday, with two 3-pointers, seven rebounds, nine assists, three steals and three blocks.

He did his damage in 37 minutes and should continue to play a big role as Denver scraps for the No. 3 seed. With key players getting injured or rested at every turn, Iguodala's fantasy owners can only sit back and enjoy.
Apr 14 - 8:28 PM

Andre Iguodala triple-doubled with 12 points, 13 boards, 10 assists, three steals and a 3-pointer on 5-of-11 shooting in Wednesday's win over the Spurs, the Nuggets' 21st straight in Denver.

It wasn't all good for Iguodala, as he hit just 1-of-4 free throws and committed seven turnovers, but a trip-dub is still a trip-dub. His free throw shooting and inconsistency have been a thorn is the side of his owners all season, and he's got serious potential to go from a bust to a value pick when he falls in next year's fantasy drafts.
Apr 11 - 1:52 AM

George Karl said that he'll talk to Andre Iguodala to help Iguodala increase his scoring.

With Danilo Gallinari (torn ACL) done for the season, the Nuggets will need Iguodala to be a little more aggressive offensively looking for his own shot. "It's more 'don't change what we're doing'," Karl said. "'Just do it a little bit better and maybe switch it instead of playmaker be a scorer a little bit.'" Iggy had 18 points, seven boards, 14 assists and two steals in Denver's first game without Gallo.

Apr 8 - 9:18 AM

Denver blew out the Rockets behind a huge game from Andre Iguodala, who scored 18 points and handed out a season-high 14 assists.

AI also had seven boards, two 3-pointers and two steals. This may be a best-case scenario, and perimeter shooting isn't his forte, but he should have a sustained uptick in production now that Ty Lawson (heel) and Danilo Gallinari (ACL) are both out of commission.
Apr 7 - 12:02 AM

Andre Iguodala, who recently said he could opt out of his contract after the season, backtracked on that stance and could play out the remainder of his deal.

"Ideally, you would want to opt out," he said. "The business of the NBA says you opt out and get a deal you like. But I think that's still to be determined, depending on our success in the playoffs. I can't make that decision now." Iguodala and the Nuggets have each expressed a desire to work something out long-term.

Apr 5 - 10:10 AM

Andre Iguodala hit a game-winning shot in the paint with 2.8 second left in Thursday's 95-94 win over the Mavericks, finishing with eight points, nine boards, eight assists, one steal and one 3-pointer in 3-of-13 shooting.

The shooting numbers are ugly, but the Nuggets are certainly going to need Iggy to be a bigger part of the offense with their top two scorers possibly out for the season. He can fill the stat sheet and will be a must-start player the rest of the way.
Apr 4 - 11:59 PM

Andre Iguodala double-doubled in the Nuggets' overtime win against the Bulls on Monday, scoring 12 points on 3-of-14 shooting (including two threes) with 10 rebounds, one assist, two steals and three blocks.

The dirty work numbers saved his night and the good news for Iguodala's owners is that over the last month he has performed like the early-mid round value that he should have been drafted as. Ty Lawson (13 points, 5-of-14 FGs, three assists) and Danilo Gallinari (11 points, 2-of-7 FGs, seven rebounds) went cold, causing George Karl to look to his reserves who delivered the win.
Mar 19 - 1:00 AM

Andre Iguodala said that he's not currently thinking about whether or not he'll opt out of his contract after the season.

Iggy can decline his player option and look for a multi-year deal, but both sides seem interested in keeping the swingman in Denver long-term. "It's in the back of your mind," he said. "But as far as making a concrete decision, you really don't size it up until the season's over, because we have some opportunities to do some really good things here."
