Report: Clippers to trade Marcus Camby to Portland

Clippers center Marcus Camby reportedly will be traded to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for forward Travis Outlaw and guard Steve Blake.

The Clippers also could receive cash as part of the deal, which is expected to be finalized Tuesday.

Outlaw told The Oregonian that he was informed by his agent about the trade and that he is ‘cool with it.’

However, it appears Camby is not pleased with the trade. He reportedly walked out of a team dinner Monday night in Portland after his agent told him that he probably would be traded to the Trail Blazers.

Camby, a former NBA defensive player of the year, is averaging 7.7 points per game and 12.1 rebounds per game.

If the trade is completed as expected, there’s a chance each of the players will be on their new teams when the Clippers tip-off against the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.
