The Denver Nuggets, Seattle SuperSonics and the Portland Trailblazers have completed a trade before the NBA’s trade deadline today (3pm ET). See the trade here.
I’m not sure what this does for the Nuggets. They have been trying to upgrade their off guard position and decided to trade a borderline starter at the point (Earl Watson) for a small forward (Ruben Patterson) and a rebounder (Reggie Evans).
Is Watson going to play behind Luke Ridnour in Seattle? It’s probably not a bad trade for the Sonics asset-wise as they jettison Evans, who wanted a trade, for Watson.
