Denver Nuggets guard Reggie Jackson has decided to exercise his $5.25 million player option for the 2024-2025 season, NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski reported.

Jackson, who played a role in the Nuggets’ championship-winning season last year, averaged 10.2 points and 3.8 assists across 82 games this past season.

Having joined the Nuggets midway through the previous season, Jackson has quickly become a valued contributor to the team’s backcourt.
