Nuggets Sign 3-and-D Wing Kessler Edwards to Training-Camp Deal

The deal sends him to camp with a chance to earn a place on a roster already at 14 guaranteed contracts.

Overview

  • Denver agreed to a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract with Edwards, making his spot contingent on camp performance.
  • Edwards, a 6-foot-8 wing drafted 44th overall in 2021, shot a career-best 49.6% from the field and 40.7% from three in 40 games last season.
  • With 14 players on guaranteed deals, he will compete for what is expected to be the Nuggets’ 15th roster spot.
  • Having completed four NBA seasons, Edwards is no longer eligible for a two-way contract and must secure a standard deal to stay on the roster.
  • The low-risk agreement preserves Denver’s salary-cap flexibility and includes potential G League bonus incentives if he is waived.
