The Portland Trail Blazers have reportedly agreed to trade starting point guard Andre Miller to the Denver Nuggets for point guard Raymond Felton. There were reports that the two teams would swap draft picks but multiple reports now indicate that the two teams will not swap their first round picks.
The Blazers have also reportedly traded guard Rudy Fernandez to the Dallas Mavericks for the No. 26 pick, Texas forward Jordan Hamilton, who will be re-routed to the Nuggets. The Blazers have also reportedly sent the draft rights to Finnish guard Petteri Koponen to the Mavericks for the No. 57 pick.
There could be additional pieces involved. Stay tuned.
