The Denver Nuggets are finally approaching to become whole while Gary Harris and Torrey Craig are expected to arrive in Orlando on Sunday, a source confirmed by ESPN.
Upon arrival, Harris and Craig will undergo the two-day protocol quarantine process on the NBA campus in Orlando, Florida. Athletic reported for the first time that Harris and Craig were en route to Orlando.
Denver’s head coach, Michael Malone, declined to specifically comment on the status of Harris and Craig. But he said on July 11 that the Nuggets were awaiting positive news from the return to Denver of other players who had been allowed to travel to Orlando after members of their travel team did not fly with the team to Florida.
Nugget closed the team structure before leaving to restart the season after two team members tested positive for coronavirus, according to sources from Adrian Wojnarowski.
The Nuggets took Nikola Jokic to Orlando last weekend after the All-Star center experienced travel problems following its positive coronavirus test in Serbia. But they had been so understaffed at the Walt Disney World resort that Malone said that he had to resort to using Jokic often as the main ball manager and guardian of the foothold and bigger attackers like Jerami Grant and Bol Bol on the perimeter.
The Nuggets’ first scrimmage is Wednesday against the Washington Wizards and Malone said he may need to be creative with his formations.
