Thread: The Official Denver Nuggets Thread!

Jimmer Fredette is back in the NBA Summer League.

The Denver Nuggets announced on Tuesday that they added the former BYU basketball star to their roster for the Las Vegas Summer League.

This comes about six weeks after reports surfaced that foreign players will likely not be able to play in China next season, where Fredette has played since 2016 save for a short stint in the NBA.

This will be the second Summer League appearance with the Nuggets for Fredette, who lives in Colorado during the offseason. He previously played for Denver’s Summer League team in 2016, averaging 15.2 points across five games. His best game with the Nuggets’ Summer League team came in a 26-point performance.

K-Mart to join staff. Former Nuggets power forward Kenyon Martin will join the team’s Summer League coaching staff, according to ESPN’s The Undefeated. Martin played seven seasons in Denver (2004-11) with 361 career starts. He was an essential piece of the team’s run to the 2009 Western Conference Finals.

For 159 days, Jamal Murray’s fire’s been burning.

Murray, who spoke with the media Monday for the first time since tearing his left ACL on April 12, said his desire to be back is “on a different level right now.” He cited the days elapsed since his surgery as evidence of his determination.

There is no timeframe for his return, and there won’t be for months. His rehab and return is predicated, solely, on how Denver’s point guard feels. It was only five months ago that Murray couldn’t even lift his left leg off the bed.

“I’ve come a long way,” Murray said.

But he knows you can’t rush time. And reps. And recovery. For all the anguish he went through after his knee buckled late in the fourth quarter at Golden State, Murray was at peace with his situation. It wasn’t close to the emotional state he was in following the injury when as Nuggets coach Michael Malone revealed on the Nuggets Ink podcast, Murray asked his coach if the team would trade him.

There goes my fairytale of getting Butler on the Noguts.

Btw, y’all have heard the rationale that Joker does the same kind of foul as Morris, right? Neighbor cheese!

Good comments on here also

Great game tonight, defense really stepped up and Bones really made some great plays.

You know Bones is gonna be good if Malone actually plays him as a rookie.
