Los Angeles Clippers restricted free agent Corey Maggette will accept a six-year, $42 million offer sheet from the Denver Nuggets, two league sources told ESPN's NBA Insider Chad Ford.

The Clippers, however, will have 15 days to match the offer once Maggette signs the offer sheet next Wednesday, the first day NBA teams can begin signing free agents. Rob Pelinka, Maggette's agent, denied the deal was "done" and told the Denver Post that his client was still getting interest from other clubs.

The 6-6 Maggette is coming off the best of his four NBA seasons, having averaged 16.8 points and 5.0 rebounds while starting a career-high 57 games for the Clippers. For his career, Maggette is averaging 11.5 points and 4.2 rebounds.

The Nuggets tied Cleveland for the league's worst record last season at 17-65, but have plenty of room under the salary cap in which to entice players.

The Nuggets are also said to be focusing on a point guard, targeting either Golden State's Gilbert Arenas or Maggette's Clippers teammate Andre Miller.

Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe even suggested the team might be looking to acquire both players.

"I think that they're both great players," Vandeweghe told the Rocky Mountain News. "I think they could play together."

The newspaper stated that Arenas wants a salary starting at $9 million a year, with Miller between $6-$7 million.

With $18 million to spend on free agents, the Nuggets could definitely afford Maggette and one of the guards.

Like Maggette, Arenas and Miller are restricted free agents, with their current teams having the option to match. The Warriors may only have $4.6 million to re-sign Arenas, which might produce a quicker decision than the 15-day waiting period.

"It weighs in because if you make an offer on a player, you could be tied up for two weeks and you could lose out on other players," Vandeweghe told the newspaper.
