French international Petr Cornelie signed a two-way contract with the Denver Nuggets, the franchise that drafted him in 2016 in 53rd position.

Five years after his draft in 53rd position, Petr Cornelie may finally be wearing the Denver Nuggets jersey in an official match. The 26-year-old French international winger (2.11m) played in the Summer League with the Colorado franchise in the wake of his draft (then in the summer of 2017 and in the summer of 2018, for a total of 14 matches. and 5.7 points average), but was not selected for the regular season. Denver therefore offers him a second chance, by making him sign a “two way” contract, which will allow him to go back and forth between the NBA (50 game sheets at most) and the G-League, via the affiliated team. at the Nuggets, the Grand Rapids Gold (Michigan). Passed by Le Mans (2013-17 then 2018-19), Paris-Levallois (2017-18) and Pau-Lacq-Orthez (2020-21), the one who has just won a silver medal with the France team at the Olympics by being called last minute will make the leap to the NBA.
