(Boulder-CO) Marc Stein is reporting for www.ESPN.com that Earl Boykins and Julius Hodge are being shipped to Milwaukee for former Maryland Terp Steve Blake. I am not going to steal Stein’s thunder and give you all the details surrounding the trade, but I will say that the writing has been on the wall for all the Nuggets faithful to read and a trade has finally happened. Check out all the aforementioned details by clicking this link:
Blake is a pass-first guard that has been part of championship caliber teams in the past with the University of Maryland. The 6’3” 170lb guard has career averages six points, three assists, and 1.7 rebounds. His overall numbers on the season have slipped a touch below his career averages, but so have his minutes per game.
The Nuggets needed to move some players to accommodate the salary-cap nightmare looming in the future and the odd man out unfortunately was Earl “The Mightiest Micro” Boykins. Best of luck to Earl in the future with the Bucks as it has been exciting to witness his skills with the Nuggets.
