Dario Saric plans to exercise $5.4 million player option with Nuggets

Real Madrid is once again moving early in the transfer market with an eye on next season. In addition to the advanced talks with Maledon since December and having Kramer already secured as Ibaka’s replacement—who is out of contract—another move the club is working on involves finding a new player. With Tavares and Bruno Fernando holding down the center position, they’re looking for a big man who can stretch the floor with shooting and play alongside a traditional center or pair up with Garuba, who seems more comfortable playing as a center rather than a power forward. According to what we’ve learned, Real Madrid has Dario Šarić’s name on the table. -via Encestando / March 24, 2025
