DerMarr Johnson, a shooting guard who has played the past two seasons with the Nuggets, said Thursday he's "going to (re-sign) before training camp" begins Tuesday in Durango.

The Nuggets also are on the verge of signing point guard Anthony Carter, a seven-year veteran who played the past two seasons for Minnesota, to a nonguaranteed deal.

Johnson said he will sign a guaranteed deal for more than the minimum of $932,015. He wouldn't offer further details.

"That's what they're talking about now," Johnson said of discussions between agent Dan Fegan and Nuggets officials. "I don't even want to say nothing (more) and be wrong. It feels good (to return). I've been working on my game all summer (primarily in Denver)."
