Although his name sounds like a bit of an oxymoron in regards to his behavior at Louiville, Caracter is an intriguing player. ESPN is reporting that we traded the Lakers for him, although I don't know what for considering he was taken 58th overall.

28(58) | LA Lakers (Rights to Derrick Caracter traded to Denver) | Derrick Caracter | 6-10 | 280 | PF | UTEP |
The Lakers will send this pick to the Nuggets. Caracter has a ton of talent -- the concern has always been about his attitude. The Nuggets really wanted him and do have a need for him on the front line. Good pick. |

There are also other reports that the trade did not happen...not sure what to think. Anyone?
