Nuggets' Robbie Hummel: Signs two-year contract with Nuggets
Robbie Hummel signed a two-year, partially guaranteed contract with the Denver Nuggets on Sunday, Sportando reports.Hummel spent the 2015-16 season with Olimpia Milano of the Italian League after failing to receive significant interest from NBA teams. However, a serious shoulder injury kept him limited throughout the season and he ended up taking time off to get back to full strength. He'll join the Nuggets for training camp, but is not a lock to make the final roster considering his contract is only partially guaranteed. If he does make the team, look for him to provide a consistent shooter off the bench, although he'd still likely struggle to see significant minutes.
