Sources: Mavs will get Rudy Fernandez

The Dallas Mavericks have reached a trade agreement with the Portland Trail Blazers to acquire swingman Rudy Fernandez, according to sources with knowledge of the deal.

The Mavericks agreed to send the No. 26 pick in Thursday night's draft to Portland to acquire Fernandez, sources said.

In a separate trade, Portland agreed to trade the pick to Denver as part of the Blazers-Nuggets swap of Andre Miller for Raymond Felton. The Nuggets also picked up a second round pick in either 2013 or 2014 from the Blazers.

The Mavericks selected Texas small forward Jordan Hamilton for Denver at No. 26.

The trade also calls for the Mavericks to send the No. 57 pick in the second round to the Blazers for the draft rights to Finnish guard Petteri Koponen, who was the last player selected in the first round of the 2007 draft.
