David Roddy, come on down, and welcome back to Colorado. The Nuggets made a roster move to shore up some depth at the wing and four as they prepare for their playoff push by signing Roddy to a two-way deal. Tamar Bates was waived in a corresponding move to make space for the former first-round pick.

Roddy, a former Colorado State Ram, will split his time between the Nuggets and their G-League affiliate, the Grand Rapids Gold. "Big Body" Roddy was selected with the 23rd pick in the 2022 NBA draft by the Philadelphia 76ers, but he was traded the next day to the Memphis Grizzlies along with Danny Green for De'Anthony Melton.
