Here’s the latest I can share based on current reporting.
-
Curtis Jones, a guard who played college basketball at Buffalo and Iowa State, has been linked to the Denver Nuggets in recent off-season coverage, including reports of him signing an undrafted free-agent or two-way deal with Denver in 2025. These reports highlighted his strong summer-league performance and potential to compete for a two-way or roster spot.[1][2][4][6]
-
Summer League and transaction coverage since mid-2025 suggest Jones contributed in Las Vegas for the Nuggets’ summer squad and drew positive attention for his shooting and control of the game, with figures around mid-teens points per game in summer play and solid 3-point shooting. This helped solidify interest from Denver as they evaluated options outside the traditional draft route.[3][4][5][8]
-
By late July 2025, multiple outlets reported that Jones reached a two-way contract with the Nuggets, marking a formal entry path to compete in the G League and potentially carve out NBA opportunities with Denver. A separate report noted his prior college stats, including scoring and shooting efficiency that season, which likely supported the two-way deal discussions.[5][6]
-
For ongoing or very recent developments (post-July 2025), there are reports and headlines indicating continued involvement with Denver through the 2025-26 season, including appearances in G League play and occasional NBA-related assignments. However, exact current status (active roster, two-way status changes, or waivers) would require a fresh update from the Nuggets’ transactions or a current sports news source.[9][10]
If you’d like, I can pull the most up-to-date status from a live source and summarize it with citations. I can also create a quick timeline or a one-page snapshot of Curtis Jones’s Nuggets path (college, summer league, two-way deal) if that helps.
