It was an eventful day for Mason Plumlee on Sunday. Early that morning, his car was broken into. A little later in the day, he was traded from the Portland Trail Blazers to the Denver Nuggets.
I went in early to the facility to my checkbook, my credit cards, and someone said, ‘Neil wants to meet with you,'” Plumlee explained.

Well, if nothing else, Plumlee moves far away from the assailants, meaning his vehicles and property might be a little safer going forward.
