The Denver Nuggets claimed Mo Williams again, but is intending to waive him off, again. This is the second time that Mo Williams will be a part of the Denver Nuggets after waiving him on the same season.

The Nuggets have just re-signed Mo Williams off the waivers a day ago after the Sixers waived him out. Mo Williams will be now a part of the Nuggets for the second time, but with possibly no floor appearance, according to the Denver Stiffs.

The epic season of Mo Williams continues as he already landed 4 teams in one year this season. The Hawks, Sixers and Nuggets are the teams who acquired Williams via trade and through NBA claim off the waivers, aside from his original team, the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Since then, Mo Williams hasn't stepped into any of the cities who acquired, since it is also not necessary for him to come, Mile High Sports confirmed. No team has the intention to let him play on the hardcourt, instead his contract is being used to maintain the salary floor of a team.

Last week, Mo Williams was claimed by the Philadelphia 76ers after the Denver Nuggets waived him. Williams was acquired by the Nuggets from the Atalants Hawks, where Williams eventually came from the Cavaliers.

Mo Williams has zero minutes this season though he was signed by 4 different teams this season. As of the moment, there is no sign of Williams stepping on the court until the season ends.

As the Nuggets announced, Mo Williams will be waived again in the next couple of days. Once waived, if no teams would sign him in, the Nuggets will be adding the $2.2 million contract of Mo Williams on their current payroll until the season ends. This would give a benefit to their team since they will be close to the rule of the salary cap floor of the NBA.

On the other side of the news, the Nuggets are reportedly about to sign Johnny O'Bryant to a 10-day contract. Johnny O'Bryant will fill the empty spot after the Nuggets waive Mo Williams for the second time.
