"Not yet," he said. "I haven't heard from anybody."

Smith said he hasn't gotten an offer from the Nuggets other than the option to return next season for the $3.04 million qualifying offer. He said it's too early to say whether he might take that offer, which would enable him to become an unrestricted free agent next summer.

"I'm not sure yet. I'd have to go over that with my people," said Smith, who said he plans to talk to his representatives at the end of July.

Taking the qualifying offer could end up being Smith's best option. He turned down a three-year contract offer last October worth about $10 million, and there have been no indications the Nuggets are willing to offer a lot more.

Even if Smith were to be offered a multi-year deal starting at $4 million, taking the qualifying offer could allow him to increase his value for next summer.

--The Nuggets signed Dahntay Jones, their leading scorer in the NBA Summer League, and big man Chris Andersen to the roster after both signed one-year deals for the NBA minimum salary.

--It's a new title, but Doug Moe will be back for a 19th season with the Nuggets. Moe, an assistant the past 3-1/2 seasons, will return to the Nuggets next season as a consultant.

"I'll be there part-time," said Moe, who makes his home in San Antonio. "I'm looking forward to it. I'll go to some road games and I won't be at every home game."

Moe was Denver's head coach from 1980-90 after having been assistant with the team in the ABA from 1974-76. He was a Nuggets consultant from 2002 until moving to the bench midway through the 2004-05 season.

Moe, 69, stepped down as an assistant when his contract expired June 30 due to wanting to spend more time with his grandchildren. But he is close with Nuggets coach George Karl, and one of his duties will be to continue to serve as a sounding board for Karl.

"It's a great opportunity," Moe said. "I'll try to help George as much as I can... I woke up this morning, so it's a good day."

Moe is the winningest coach in Nuggets history, having gone 432-357 and being named 1987-88 NBA Coach of the Year. The number 432 hangs in his honor at the Pepsi Center.

You've got to wait longer to see the results of the move." -- Nuggets vice president of basketball operations Mark Warkentien, on why the team traded center Marcus Camby to the Clippers for the right to trade second-round picks in 2010.
