The Nuggets have agreed to a trade that would net them veteran power forward Malik Allen from the Bucks in exchange for Sonny Weems and Walter Sharpe, an NBA source said Tuesday afternoon. The trade will likely become official later in the week.
The 6-foot-10 Allen averaged 3.2 points off the bench for Milwaukee last season, playing in 49 games.
He has been in the league since 2001, with a career average of 5.4 points per game. With question marks surroundingSteven Hunter — and Johan Petro yet to be re-signed — Denver’s only other reserve low-post player is Chris Andersen.
