Denver Nuggets forward Darrell Arthur and guard Nate Robinson exercised their contract options for next season, the team announced Monday.

The Nuggets acquired Arthur in a draft-night trade a year ago. He averaged 5.9 points and 3.1 rebounds in 68 games last season. He also made a career-high 24 3-pointers, which was 19 more than his previous four seasons combined.

Arthur is averaging 6.5 points and 3.7 rebounds in 315 NBA games with the Nuggets and Memphis Grizzlies.

Robinson, who signed as a free agent last summer, averaged 10.4 points and 2.5 assists in 44 games before sustaining a season-ending knee injury on Jan. 29.

Robinson is averaging 11.4 points, 3.0 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 574 NBA games with the Nuggets, Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, Oklahoma City Thunder, Boston Celtics and New York Knicks.
