There’s no telling how long Gillespie may be out, but the fact he’s already undergone surgery means he’s already on the road to recovery. Gillespie had a fantastic summer league for the Nuggets just a couple weeks ago and showcased why Denver signed him to a two-way contract immediately after the draft.
In four summer league games, Gillespie averaged 11.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game. Gillespie was the steadying force of the Nuggets offense and even contributed on the defensive end of the floor with 1.3 steals per game.
Collin Gillespie. Cash.

Here’s to hoping for a speedy recovery for Gillespie, who can hopefully return to action sooner rather than later!
