DENVER — The Western Conference-leading Denver Nuggets added depth to their backcourt by signing free agent guard Reggie Jackson on Tuesday night.
Jackson was recently waived by Charlotte after being acquired from the LA Clippers as part of a deal at the trade deadline last week.
The 32-year-old Jackson grew up down the road in Colorado Springs, where he became the Gatorade Colorado boys’ player of the year before going to Boston College. Jackson was the 24th overall pick by Oklahoma City in 2011.
