Denver Nuggets F Andre Iguodala, 29, has stated that he will opt out of the final year of his contract which is valued at $16.1 million to seek a long term deal via free agency this upcoming off season.  Iguodala understands that he lose millions by opting out but he's fine with that decision.


“Yeah, definitely,’’ Iguodala,said. “You got to weigh options. Security-wise, a player would opt, especially with the type of season we’ve had as a team. Teams know what I can bring to them, and I know (the Nuggets) know what I can bring to a team here.
“Players get like $50, $60 or $70 or $80 (million over multiple years), whatever the number was, they gave up a big number (in an option season by opting out). But in the grand scheme of things, pretty much get it back. You got security.’’
