Mavericks Trade Rudy Fernandez, Corey Brewer To Nuggets

The Dallas Mavericks completed Tuesday's rumored deal, agreeing to send Rudy Fernandez and Corey Brewer to the Denver Nuggets for a future second-round pick, according to ESPN's Marc Stein. On NBA Draft Night 2011, Fernandez was involved in the three-team deal between the Mavericks, the Nuggets and the Trail Blazers. The Blazers sent Fernandez to the Mavericks to acquire Jordan Hamilton, who was then flipped to the Nuggets. 

Fernandez is entering his fourth NBA season. At Portland, he averaged 10.4 points per game as a rookie, then 8.1 and 8.6 the past two seasons. Fernandez came to the Mavs via a three-team trade during the 2011 NBA Draft.

Brewer spent last season with the Mavericks after four seasons with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He's averaging 8.9 points per game and 3.2 rebounds per game as a pro following his college career at Florida.

The Mavericks will receive Denver's second-round pick in 2016, according to Brad Townsend of the Dallas Morning News.

Have not seen anywhere that Jordan Hamilton was part of this deal.

Where are you getting that info? I don’t believe it’s true at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hamilton has been signed to rookie deal and isn’t allowed to be traded for 30 days. Plus, the info from Stein says future 2nd Round pick.

"The trade basically returns Fernandez and Hamilton to the teams they were originally with on draft night this year."

& I never knew that Rudy was on the nuggets’ roster on draft night…
