The Nuggets have waived camp invitee Kellan Grady, according to the NBA.com transaction log.
Grady, who went undrafted out of Kentucky this June, spent his first four college seasons at Davidson and was the team’s primary offensive weapon across those four years, averaging 17.4 PPG with a .366 3PT% in 115 games. He transferred to the Wildcats for his “super-senior” year in 2021/22 and averaged 11.4 PPG with a .415 3PT% in 34 games (32.9 MPG) last season.
The Nuggets signed Grady to an Exhibit 10 contract in July and he suited up for Denver’s Summer League team in Las Vegas.
Now that he has been waived, Grady will likely report to the Grand Rapids Gold, Denver’s G League affiliate. The terms of his agreement with the team call for him to receive a $50K bonus if he spends at least 60 days with Grand Rapids.
The Nuggets now have 19 players under contract — 15 on guaranteed deals, a pair on two-way contracts, and Chasson Randle and Grant Golden on Exhibit 10 pacts.
