NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.
The latest, the greatest, the rumors we are all seeking. They are all right here.
It looks like Jamal Tinsley will be leaving the Indiana Pacers, since they loaded up on point guards this past spring. The most likely suitor is the Denver Nuggets.
The proposed deal would send point guard Chucky Atkins and center Steven Hunter to the Pacers. Both would have backup roles with the Pacers.
Atkins will make $3.2 million this season and $3.5 million next season, with $760,000 of it guaranteed. He is expected to be out until at least next month following right knee surgery last month. The 7-foot Hunter will make $3.9 million this season and $3.7 million next season. Tinsley will make $21.5 million over the next three seasons. The trade would benefit both teams. The Nuggets need a point guard, and the Pacers would save money, get two players with shorter contracts and, more important, end their relationship with Tinsley.
