Lonnie Walker officially signed a contract with the Denver Nuggets on September 10. The former Los Angeles Lakers player returns to the NBA after a stint playing overseas following his departure from Maccabi Tel Aviv. His current agreement with Denver is a non-guaranteed training camp deal, meaning his spot on the team's opening night roster is not secured. Walker joins a Nuggets rotation that saw minimal changes this offseason, with the notable exception of acquiring DeMar DeRozan. Denver recently traded standout guard Peyton Watson to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Walker will now compete for a permanent position on the roster throughout the preseason.
