The Nuggets will tender a qualifying contract offer to Timofey Mozgov in the offseason, a source told CSNNW.
Mozgov receiving a qualifying offer would make him a restricted free agent. Mozgov's name was on the trade block leading up to the deadline, so it's possible the club just wants an opportunity to match any deal he might get on the open market. Apr 15 - 9:36 AM

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov admitted that his first priority in free agency will be signing with a team that has a role for him.

When asked of Miami's rumored interest, Mozgov said that he didn't care the Heat were title contenders, and he's just focused on playing basketball. "I am not going to sit on the bench even for a champion's ring," he said. Clearly, Mozgov doesn't suffer from any sort of confidence issues.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

The Nuggets are "unlikely" to trade Timofey Mozgov before Thursday's deadline, according to Yahoo!'s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Mozgov could reportedly be had for the right price, but the Nuggets have already rebuffed overtures from the Heat, as well as the Wolves' offer of Brandon Roy and a first-round pick. He'll likely finish the season as the third-string center in Denver.

The Heat have shown interest in Timofey Mozgov, but a deal appears unlikely.

Miami could just stand pat through the deadline, and unless they find a deal exactly to their liking, that's probably what will happen.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

The Nuggets reportedly rejected an offer of Brandon Roy's contract and a future first-round pick from the Timberwolves for Timofey Mozgov.

Interesting. Mozgov is definitely available for the right price, but Denver apparently doesn't have interest in taking on Roy's contract even if it comes with a future first-round pick. The Nuggets will reportedly keep Mozgov unless they get a "crazy good" offer, and we're not sure he's worth that to any other team.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

The Nuggets are rumored to be leaning toward keeping Timofey Mozgov unless they receive a "crazy good" trade offer.

The source of the tidbit, ESPN's Marc Stein, prefaces it with the warning that it may be "mere posturing" by someone "plugged into the Nuggets' plans," a warning we'll take the opportunity to echo. Mozgov has been chafing with a limited role behind Kosta Koufos and JaVale McGee, the Heat have already been mentioned as a possible suitor, and Christopher Dempsey of the Denver Post wrote in January, "In less than a month, Timofey Mozgov is unlikely to be with the Nuggets." Stay tuned.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov scored a season-high 10 points with three rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes on Monday.

The 25 minutes were his second-highest total on the season and he could be in line for more minutes. JaVale McGee could miss time, so Mozgov is worth a look in very deep leagues.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

The Denver Post believes Timofey Mozgov will be dealt before the February 21 trade deadline.

It's the second straight report that Mozgov is on the block. The big man has picked up a slew of DNP-Coach's Decision in January, and he's buried on the depth chart behind both Kosta Koufos and JaVale McGee. "I want to play," Mozgov said. "I want to stay. But more than I want to stay, I want to play." The Heat "are among several teams believed to be interested in Mozgov."

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

The Nuggets "are looking to deal" Timofey Mozgov, league sources told Fox Sports Florida.

It makes sense. Mozgov said he wouldn't be surprised if he were traded, and given he's in the last year of his deal, the Nuggets will at least explore the market. Mozgov is buried behind Kosta Koufos and JaVale McGee on the depth chart, and he hasn't played more than 15 minutes in a game since December 5.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov started at center for Kosta Koufos (flu) on Wednesday and had six points, 13 rebounds and a block against the Hawks.

JaVale McGee had just 11 points, three boards and two blocks in 24 minutes, and the three-headed center monster in Denver isn't fun from a fantasy perspective. But even though he's coming off the bench, McGee is still the best one of the three to own.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov (knee) made his Nuggets season debut on Friday, scoring four points on 1-of-3 shooting with four rebounds, one steal, and two assists in 20 minutes off the bench.

Mozgov saw a few extra minutes because of the blowout, and he is the least valuable of the center triumvirate in Denver. Leave him on the wire.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov is expected to make his season debut on Wednesday after missing the start of the season with a knee injury.

He'll simply further cloud the center picture in Denver, while JaVale McGee is the guy to own, despite the fact he might play less than 20 minutes a night. Mozgov will also have to share minutes with Kosta Koufos, as well.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov (knee) didn't return on Saturday, but he could play in Tuesday's home opener.

Mozgov is third on the Nuggets' center depth chart and he won't have value while mopping up minutes in the frontcourt.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov (knee) could return Saturday night against the Heat, but if not should be ready in time for Tuesday's game against the Pistons.

Mozgov, stuck behind Kosta Koufos and JaVale McGee, is unlikely to see any serious minutes upon his return and thus has no fantasy value.

Timofey Mozgov - C - Nuggets

Timofey Mozgov (knee) ran during shootaround on Friday and may be able to return for the team's home opener on Tuesday against the Pistons.

Mozgov is not guaranteed minutes in the rotation and therefore has no fantasy value.
