Signing Russell Westbrook seemed like the final major move for the Denver Nuggets this offseason, and it likely is. While the team could still consider trades or minor adjustments, the roster appears largely finalized as they head into training camp.
Nonetheless, the Nuggets need to bring in players for training camp—those who will vie for roles during the preseason and potentially secure positions on the team, in the G-League, or elsewhere in professional basketball.
Soon after completing the Westbrook deal, the Nuggets quickly added players on training camp contracts. They signed three individuals who previously participated in the Summer League.
**Jaylin Williams Joins Nuggets on Training Camp Contract**
Denver has brought in Williams, a versatile player who excelled in his college career at Auburn. Known for his defensive skills and high energy, Williams offers strong fundamentals and a high basketball IQ. While he’s not a top shooter or scorer, he contributes in other impactful ways.
**Jahmir Young Joins Nuggets on Training Camp Contract**
Young, a standout point guard from Maryland, impressed during the Summer League. With the Nuggets needing additional guards and ball handlers, Young has a chance to make a significant impact during training camp. His performance could be crucial, especially after Jalen Pickett’s underwhelming showing; Young might be a contender for Pickett’s spot.
**Gabe McGlothan Joins Nuggets on Training Camp Contract**
McGlothan, an athletic forward from Grand Canyon, offers intrigue despite being slightly undersized. His athleticism and burst are notable, and his game bears some resemblance to Aaron Gordon’s, suggesting he might benefit from learning alongside Gordon. McGlothan also gained attention in college for his impressive dunk contest win.
