Former Portland Trail Blazers center and restricted free agent Mason Plumlee has agreed to remain with the Denver Nuggets on a three-year, $41-million contract, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. The Trail Blazers traded Plumlee, cash considerations, and a second-round draft pick to the Nuggets on February 13, 2017, in exchange for Jusuf Nurkic and a first-round draft pick that was later parlayed in another trade that yielded rookie center Zach Collins.
