The Nuggets have made several trades
The Denver Nuggets announced several transactions on Friday. In an official press release, the team announced that Amida Brimah, Au’Diese Toney and Jamorko Pickett signed deals, while Armaan Franklin, Andrew Funk and Souley Boum were placed on waivers. In its official announcement, Denver wrote the following:
“The Denver Nuggets have signed center Amida Brimah, forwards Au’Diese Toney and Jamorko Pickett, general manager Calvin Booth announced today. In related news, the team has also claimed Armaan Franklin on waivers , Andrew Funk and Souley Boum.”
The team also included information on three new signings, who will join the team at the conclusion of their pre-season schedule. The three players cleared on waivers will likely join the Nuggets’ G-League affiliate, where newly signed players will also likely join. It’s not uncommon for teams to draft players for training camps before waiving them and considering other players at those spots. While the end result for these players is almost always a G-League berth, making a strong impression on the organization can lead to greater opportunities when such opportunities arise .
The Nuggets will now look at Amida Brimah, Au’Diese Toney and Jamorko Pickett after waiving Armaan Franklin, Andrew Funk and Souley Boum. With the season approaching, Denver wanted to see what they had in these new players.
