The Denver Nuggets reached a buyout agreement with forward Joey Dorsey, who was acquired from the Houston Rockets in last month’s trade for Ty Lawson.

Dorsey, 31, signed with a Turkish club team, agreeing to a one-year, $650,000 deal according to multiple reports.

Dorsey started 17 games in 2014-15 with Dwight Howard sidelined by a knee injury.

He spent the previous three seasons playing overseas with teams in Greece and Spain.
