Well Andersen was coming off a 2 year ban from drugs, so not a lot of teams, including the Nuggets, really thought he was going to do anything this year. Plus Andersen lives here in Denver, and had several minimum salary offers from teams, but chose Denver because of a few factors. Playing time, familiar with the front office, and loyalty to the city.
