Mike Muscala was traded on his first night as an NBA player. He has been traded five more times since then, most recently in June, which certifies him as a basketball nomad.
Asked Monday night how many teams he has played for, Muscala smiled.
"I lost count, to be honest," he said.
Bitter? Not even slightly.
The Roseville native treats every day in the NBA as a blessing, even the hard ones. His official tally of teams is six (eight if you count trade pitstops) after being shipped from Boston to Washington in late June.
