White Wants to Stay in Denver

Aug 17, 2004 3:16 PM EST

Free agent Rodney White would love to remain a Nugget, but he also wants to play as well. "I just really want an opportunity," White said. "I played 13 minutes a game last year. I would like to play some more minutes. To remain a Nugget White would probably have to take a temporary pay cut as Denver is already $2.3-million under the salary cap. They also declined to pick up White’s $2.5-million dollar option for next season.

"When I get the playing time, hopefully 2.5 won't even be what we'll be talking about. I just want the best situation right now. I'm not looking for the max dollars."

Given this fact White is still looking forward to the opportunity to remain with the Nuggets. "I would like to end up back in Denver," White said. "Denver has a chance to go very far, and I would love to be part of that if I'm utilized the right way."

Miami and New Orleans are the two other teams expressing interest in White.
