Mark Jackson's second stint in Denver is over before it started.

The Denver Nuggets have waived veteran point guard Mark Jackson. Jackson, 37, was acquired from New York with forward-center Marcus Camby and the rights to forward Nene Hilario in the draft day trade that sent forward Antonio McDyess and the rights to guard Frank Williams to the Knicks.

Jackson likely won't be out of a job for long. The Utah Jazz have expressed interest in the 15-year veteran. Among those teams who could use an experienced point guard are Boston, Cleveland, the Los Angeles Clippers and Golden State.

The move leaves the rebuilding Nuggets extremely thin at point guard, where only second-year player Kenny Satterfield and rookie Junior Harrington are under contract. Veteran George McCloud has played the position in the past with moderate success.
