Background: Pre-season contracts as a bridge to the G League
The Denver Nuggets announced the arrival of three players for the league's pre-season contracts: Dane Goodwin, Coleman Hawkins and Emanuel Miller.
In league logic, this type of contract allows the athlete to participate in pre-season with the team from NBA and if he does not open up space in the main squad, be directed to the G League affiliate.
Development: Goodwin, Hawkins and Miller numbers in the last season
Dane Goodwin is a 6-foot-6 forward who played 50 games in the G League last season for Grand Rapids Gold. He averaged 15.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.2 steals, numbers that show offensive consistency and a player prepared to compete on an affiliated team.
Coleman Hawkins is a 6-foot-10 power forward who also wore the Grand Rapids Gold jersey, appearing in 48 games last season. His averages stood at 7.8 points,7.1 rebounds,5.8 assists and 1.5 steals per game as well as close to one blocking per game.
Emanuel Miller played as a 6-foot-5 winger and made 40 appearances in the G League last season, splitting the campaign between Cleveland Charge, Austin Spurs and Windy City Bulls.
Prospect: After the preseason, expected path to Grand Rapids Gold
The expectation is that after the 2017 pre-season, all three players will join Grand Rapids Gold for the G League season.
For the fans, the picture is simple: Goodwin, Hawkins and Miller arrive as options for depth and development. If pre-season doesn't open up space on the Nuggets team,[23] the move to Grand Rapids Gold keeps athletes on the radar of the New York Knicks and creates a natural cycle of evaluation.[24] At this stage, the news marks the beginning of a process: three contracts signed, a clear path to G League and the next step to be decided in the preseason courts.[25]
