Denver, CO (SportsNetwork.com) - Jameer Nelson is on the
move again. The Denver Nuggets acquired Nelson from the
Boston Celtics on Tuesday in exchange for fellow point
guard Nate Robinson. Nelson, 32, appeared in just six
games for the Celtics after coming over from Dallas in
the Rajon Rondo deal last month. He was averaging 4.8
points and 5.5 assists in just over 20 minutes per game
for Boston. The 11-year NBA veteran and all-time Orlando
Magic assists leader hasnt played since Jan. 2 because of
an ankle injury. He has averaged 6.8 points and 4.4
assists in 29 games between the Mavericks and Celtics
this season. Robinson, 30, was averaging 5.8 points in 33
games during his second season with the Nuggets. The 10-
year NBA veteran played in 81 games for Boston between
2010-11.

lis Colts Jerseys . Or, for that matter, the
aged.While much of the focus of the NBA Offseason is
about stars changing teams, there isnt necessarily a
dramatic impact, say to LeBron James production going
from Miami to Cleveland. Leaving aside the possibility of
more changes to come with the Cavaliers roster, there
isnt an obvious reason that James numbers should be
significantly different next season. His greatness will
travel. On the other hand, there are some players that
are looking at better opportunities next year, with the
possibility of more playing time and touches leading to
potentially better production. Here are 10 guys that
could have bigger roles with their respective clubs next
season: Chris Bosh, C, Miami - Wooed by the Rockets, Bosh
decided to return to the Heat, even in the wake of LeBron
James departure. Sure, newcomers Luol Deng and Josh
McRoberts will have big roles in the frontcourt, but if
anyone is going to have a bigger role in LeBrons absence,
doesnt it have to be Bosh? He had 12.1 field goal
attempts per game last season, his fewest since his
rookie year (2003-2004!) and this while hes become a more
effective shooter, with a career-best 55.5% effective
field goal percentage, dramatically increasing his three-
point attempts to 4.5 per game. Thats up from 1.6 per
game, which had been a career-best, the year before.
Sure, there wont be as many open threes if Deng is
handling the ball instead of LeBron, but it should come
as no surprise if Bosh sees his field goal attempts go
back to 15-16 per game and he gets back over 20 points
per game. Darren Collison, PG, Sacramento - After Isaiah
Thomas departed for Phoenix, Collison moved north from
the Clippers to take the Kings starting point guard job.
Collison played a career-low 25.9 minutes per game last
season, yet was effective enough, scoring 11.4 points and
dishing 3.7 assists per game. With presumably more
minutes and possibly more shots (Thomas was one of three
Kings to average more than 15 field goal attempts per
game), 26-year-old Collison is in position to have his
numbers bounce back signfiicantly this season. Lance
Stephenson, SG, Charlotte - Moving from starting shooting
guard in Indiana to starting shooting guard in Charlotte
doesnt necessarily mean a big change, but the Hornets let
Gary Neal jack up 12.8 shots per game last season while
shooting 35.3% from the field. Why not give those looks
to Stephenson, who shot a career-best 49.1% from the
field, averaging a career-high 14.1 points, 7.3 rebounds
and 4.7 assists per game with the Pacers last year.
Jordan Hill, C, L.A. Lakers - There are newcomers at
power forward for the Lakers, including Carlos Boozer,
Julius Randle and Ed Davis and, between them, they will
eat some minutes in the middle, but Hill is looking at a
prime opportunity to start for the Lakers, a chance to
build on a great finish to last season, when he averaged
15.9 points, 9.9 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game in
March and April. Hill shot a career-best 54.9% from the
field last year and played more than 20 minutes per game
for the first time in his career. If he can maintain that
efficiency, he could be a real asset over 28-30 minutes
per game as a starter. Patrick Beverley, PG, Houston -
With the Rockets sending Jeremy Lin to to the Lakers,
Beverley is head-and-shoulders above his competition for
playing time at the point with the
Rockets..ddddddddddddBeverley may not play a bunch more,
than the 31 minutes a night he averaged last season, but
there are more touches available and if Beverley takes an
extra couple shots per game and dishes a few more
assists, he will continue on his Andrei Kirilenko, SF,
Brooklyn - A 33-year-old forward coming off a season in
which he averaged 5.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.6
assists per game, while playing a career-low 19 minutes
per game, Kirilenko will have to compete with younger
Euro forwards Sergey Karasev and Bojan Bogdanovic for
playing time but, as an established NBA player, Kirilenko
should have first crack at replacing Paul Pierce in the
starting lineup. With significant playing time, Kirilenko
has an opportunity for something resembling a bounceback
season. Donatas Motiejunas, PF, Houston - One other
reason that the Rockets should have some shots available
is that they let Chandler Parsons go to Dallas and only
James Harden (16.5) had more than Parsons 13.3 field goal
attempts per game. With a thinned-out roster, because
they were trying to lure a premier free agent, there is
opportunity in Houston for someone like Motiejunas, a 23-
year-old left-handed 7-footer who has put up 5.6 points
and 3.0 rebounds in a little over 14 minutes per game
through two NBA seasons. Motiejunas had a strong showing
in the Las Vegas Summer League so maybe hell find his way
into a regular spot in the Houston rotation and put up
some decent numbers as a result. Cody Zeller, PF,
Charlotte - With Josh McRoberts moving on, there is
opportunity available in the Hornets frontcourt and last
years fourth overall pick, Zeller, should have the edge
over this years ninth overall pick, Noah Vonleh, for a
spot in the starting lineup. Zeller started slowly as a
rookie, shooting 38.0% from the field before the All-Star
break, but he hit 50.7% from the field after the break,
averaging 7.7 points and 4.8 rebounds per game in 18.3
minutes per game. If Zeller is a starter, 12 (points per
game) and 8 (rebounds per game) should be possible.
Anthony Morrow, SG, Oklahoma City - While the Thunder are
looking at a starting lineup that will effectively
include two point guards, Russell Westbrook and Reggie
Jackson, there should be a regular rotation role for
Morrow, a three-point bomber who hit 45.1% from beyond
the arc last season and has made 42.8% on threes for his
career. Morrow played under 19 minutes per game in New
Orleans last season, but effectively takes over a spot
from Thabo Sefolosha, who was playing 26 minutes per game
for the Thunder last year. Some of those minutes would
figure go to Jackson, but if Morrow plays 24 minutes a
game, he could score in double figures. Hollis Thompson,
SF, Philadelphia - 23-year-old Thompson started 41 games
for the Sixers last season, averaging 6.0 points, 3.2
rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. An undrafted free
agent out of Georgetown, Thompson made 40.1% of his
three-pointers as a rookie and there just arent that many
great offensive options for the 76ers. Once Michael
Carter-Williams and Thaddeus Young get theirs, why
couldnt Thompson double last years 4.8 field goal
attempts per game? Scott Cullen can be reached at
