The Nuggets are expected to sign Summer League standout Vlatko Cancar, a league source confirmed to The Denver Post.
Cancar is expected to make the 15-man roster, meaning the Nuggets would have one open roster spot after the move.
Cancar, a 2017 second-round pick, averaged 9.7 points in 30 minutes per game in Las Vegas Summer League. The 6-foot-8 Slovenian forward spent last season playing for San Pablo Burgos in Spain.
The Nuggets are loaded at the wing, but Cancar could add a different dimension to the rotation. He’s got a strong frame, a high basketball IQ and is deceptively athletic.
