Foye will remain in Denver for the 2015-16 season after the Nuggets picked up his third-year option Saturday, Jerry Zgoda of the Star Tribune reports. The option on Foye's contract is for just $3.1 million, leaving an easy decision for the Nuggets who'll retain a veteran scorer that averaged 22 minutes per game last season. Given that Foye only made 50 appearances due to various injuries in the previous year, he'll compete for reserve playing time with Will Barton and Gary Harris this upcoming season.
