              According to the Denver Post article that charlz posted, he was likely going to participate in summer league for Denver, so hopefully he's added to the Raps' summer league roster.

                  he is a lock down defender and gifted passer that according to everything I have read, can't shoot for shit.

                    For where we're at, I'd rather have passers than shooters in the backup PG spots. There's certainly some interesting elements there: his size, ability to finish, defensive skillset, etc. Then you look at his stats, see he averaged just 3.3 pts in the d-league (plus 3 assists and 3.8 rebounds), and you wonder why he's shown so little thus far.

                    Here's a good writeup I found from last September:

                        But as most Nuggets fans know, it is really on his defense that Julyan Stone’s future will hinge, and where his natural abilities are strongest. He has good lateral quickness to stay in front of his man, and the length to bother shots and get his hands into passing lanes. And when it comes to hands, Stone’s are quick. Last season, he had the second highest steal rate after Corey Brewer, and like Brewer, he was very proficient at chasing down loose balls to save or take away possessions. In what may be somewhat a product of playing in college for four years and developing solid fundamentals, Stone also has surprisingly good communicative skill on defense, working well with his teammates as they go through the complicated switches and rotations of Karl’s defense.

                          Good potential. I think he can flourish as our backup!

                            could be used situationally when we need a stop as well. Has the height and weight to guard twos and smaller 3s

                              One would think so
