The Nuggets' Francisco Elson, who is making the minimum $719,373, said he wishes to remain in Denver. At 30, he also knows this might be his best opportunity to land a big contract.
"It ain't like I don't want to be here," he said. "I want to be here, but I want to play, too. You've got to be professional about it and see where it goes. Opportunities are slim. . . . It's going to be a tough decision for both parties."

Joseph Santos, the ex-manager of Nuggets forward Nene, has filed a breach-of-contract lawsuit against Nene seeking more than $100,000 in damages, the Denver Post is reporting.
Santos claims he had a seven-year contract with Nene, signed last July, that paid him 6 percent of Nene's annual gross revenue, according to a lawsuit filed March 16 in Denver District Court.
Santos alleges Nene breached that contract when he fired Santos this month because the player "failed to set forth any good cause for the termination as required by the contract," the suit states.
Nene, 23, also fired his agent Michael Coyne this month and hired agent Dan Fegan. Nene will be a restricted free agent after this season.
