If you replaced Jamal Murray with Trae Young would the Nuggets be better or worse? (alien.top)

Basically the title. Replace Murray with Trae. Contracts stay the same. Are the Nuggets better or worse now? I’m talking about Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks by the way

he did a job at points during the playoffs, and it was largely thanks to his matchip comparative size/physicality. there are levels to bad defense, and jamal murray vs trae young is probably the perfect example of that

He’s not a shutdown defender, but he’s long and strong as hell. He may not be locking up, but you aren’t getting easy buckets on his head.
