Slim Chance Kleiza Will Be Moved
By this afternoon, the
Nuggets could have Ron Artest on their roster, but it would likely mean Linas
Kleiza would be on the Kings' roster, a source close to Artest said.
With the NBA trade deadline at 1 p.m. today, the Nuggets could nab Artest for the affordable, 23-year-old Kleiza and a handful of add-ons. For instance, the Nuggets have Eduardo Najera, a hard-nosed forward who has an expiring contract, as well as an enticing first-round draft pick this year, which could be packaged in a deal.
Artest<->Kleiza+Najera?
