Report: Nuggets' Chandler will exercise 2018-19 player option

Wilson Chandler will continue to call the Mile High City his home in 2018-19.

The Denver Nuggets forward will opt into his $12.8-million player option for next season, league sources told ESPN's Chris Haynes.

Chandler is coming off his seventh season in Denver. He was acquired in 2011 at the trade deadline in a blockbuster deal which sent Carmelo Anthony to the New York Knicks.

The 31-year-old made 74 appearances in 2017-18 for the 46-win Nuggets, averaging 10 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists on 44.5 percent shooting from the field as a starter.
