Nuggets sign Tyus Jones to one-year contract for upcoming season

The Denver Nuggets have signed guard Tyus Jones to a one-year deal, solidifying his position on the team for the upcoming season. Jones joined the Nuggets in March 2026 after being waived by the Dallas Mavericks, where he played a minimal role. With the Nuggets losing significant players in the offseason, retaining Jones provides much-needed depth, especially as they look to boost their shooting options. The signing indicates a cautious approach by the Nuggets as they navigate a changing roster and uncertain market conditions, focusing on short-term deals as they assess their long-term strategy.
