Vlatko Čančar, the Slovenian basketball player, has officially bid farewell to the Denver Nuggets via Instagram, confirming he will no longer be part of the NBA team. After six years and only 13 games played in the last season, averaging 1.8 points and 2.5 rebounds per game, Čančar decided it’s time for a new challenge. Over his entire NBA career, he played a total of 11 games with averages of 3.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, and 0.9 assists per game. In his emotional goodbye, Čančar thanked Denver for giving him the chance to grow as a player and a person, emphasizing that Denver will always be his second home and that this is not goodbye, but see you later. It is speculated that he will continue his career with Milan’s Olimpia, which could be a fresh start for the 28-year-old forward. This decision comes as the Denver Nuggets are making roster changes, including acquiring veteran center Jonas Valančiūnas from the Sacramento Kings. Čančar also underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee, which might have influenced his decision. All in all, it’s the end of one NBA story and the beginning of a new chapter in Europe, leaving fans eager to see what the future holds for this talented Slovenian. So, what do you think – did Čančar make the right move or quit on his NBA dreams too soon? Drop your thoughts, let’s see who’s on which side!
