The Nuggets have sent three players to the NBA G League, the team announced Monday.
Rookies Tyler Lydon and Monte Morris will play for the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, and rookie Torrey Craig will suit up for the Sioux Falls Skyforce, the team announced.
The moves do not come as a surprise as all three were inactive for the Nuggets first two games.
Lydon, a first-round 2017 draft pick who was acquired in a draft night trade with Utah, appeared in all five of the Nuggets’ preseason games, averaging 1.0 points and 1.0 rebounds in 5.
