The Denver Nuggets have converted big man Bol Bol's two-way contract to a standard NBA deal worth $4.2 million over two years, his agents told Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Bol made his NBA debut during the season's restart inside the Orlando bubble. He averaged 5.7 points and 2.7 rebounds in seven seeding games but didn't feature prominently in the playoffs, averaging just 5.4 minutes in four postseason contests.
The 21-year-old is eligible for the 2020-21 Rookie of the Year award because he debuted after this past season's suspension in play.
The Miami Heat drafted the 7-foot-2 center in the second round in 2019 before trading him to Denver. He's the son of former NBA big man Manute Bol.
