Dewayne Dedmon is exactly the type of backup center that the Denver Nuggets need.
In free agency, the Denver Nuggets struggled to find a quality backup for superstar center Nikola Jokic, settling on seldom-used Isaiah Hartenstein — who plays an en vogue European style of basketball — rather than more established options like Dewayne Dedmon.
Dedmon, who last played for the Atlanta Hawks, was recently released by the Detroit Pistons after being traded this offseason.
