The Nuggets have waived Moses Brown and Kessler Edwards, a source tells Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette (Twitter link).
Brown, a 26-year-old center, signed an Exhibit 10 contract with Denver in September. He appeared in 13 total games last season with Indiana and Dallas, but spent most of the season in the G League. The Nuggets’ affiliate, the Grand Rapids Gold, recently acquired Brown’s returning rights, so he’s likely headed there once he clears waivers.
Brown has been a journeyman since he entered the league in 2019, making brief stops with seven teams.
Edwards, a 25-year-old small forward, also joined the Nuggets on an Exhibit 10 deal this summer. He got into 40 games with Dallas last season, averaging 4.2 points and 2.9 rebounds in 15.2 minutes per night. He may also be headed to Grand Rapids, where like Brown, he will be eligible for a bonus worth up to $85,300 if he spends at least 60 days with the team.
The cuts leave Denver with 14 standard contracts and all three of its two-way slots filled.
