Dario Šarić has exercised his player option and will remain with the Denver Nuggets for another year, Misko Raznatovic announced.
The Croatian forward had until June 29 to decide whether he wanted to leave the Nuggets, and it appears he has chosen to stay with the team for the 2025/26 season.
Šarić is set to earn $5.4 million next year and, as it seems for now, has postponed a potential return to Europe.
He arrived in the NBA in 2016, signing with the Philadelphia 76ers. Since then, he has played for the Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Golden State Warriors before joining the Nuggets last summer.
Šarić struggled to carve out a larger role in Denver’s rotation, appearing in just 16 regular-season games and averaging 3.5 points and 3.1 rebounds per contest.
