Torrey Craig

SG, Denver Nuggets

According to league sources, the Nuggets have extended a qualifying offer to forward Torrey Craig, Keith Smith of Yahoo Sports reported on Tuesday evening.

This move makes the 29-year-old Craig a restricted free agent but ensures that the Nuggets front office will have the ability to match any offer sheet Craig might find on the open market from another team. He seems like a backup plan in the event Jerami Grant, who declined his player option for 2020-21, signs elsewhere. Having both return to the roster for the upcoming season isn't out of the question, either.
