The Denver Nuggets have traded away former MVP Allen Iverson to the Detroit Pistons for Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess and Cheikh Samb.

“We just felt it was the right time to change our team,” Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars said.

“Iverson gives us a dimension that we haven’t had here and we really think it’s going to help us.”

Iverson could debut with his new team as early as Wednesday night against Toronto.

“He was very excited about the trade,” Iverson’s agent Leon Rose said.

This Pistons just hope their new star player will participate in practice.
