Now, Cornelie is playing with the Nuggets G League affiliate team, the Grand Rapids Gold, where he's averaging 15.7 points and 12 rebounds per game.

The French player gave a long interview to the French website BeBasket and talked briefly about his future.

The G League season is shorter than the NBA and when asked if he might return to Europe at the end of the season, Cornelie showed uncertainty.

"Honestly, I don't know because it depends on what will happen", the French forward explained. "If I manage to get a contract somewhere...I don't know what will happen in a month, we'll see".

Cornelie revealed that when he was cut by the Denver Nuggets, he received interest from several European teams but in the end he remained in the USA, signing in the G League.

"When I was cut by Denver, there was quite the interest from a few European teams", Cornelie said. "If I'll return to Europe? I don't know, it'll depend on a lot of things".
