DENVER -- The Denver Nuggets have lost another player who helped them reach the Western Conference finals.

Forward Linas Kleiza, who played four years in Denver, is taking his game to Europe.

Nuggets executive Mark Warkentien said Kleiza has chosen to play for Olympiakos, agreeing to a two-year deal worth $12.2 million. Warkentien said Kleiza's agent, Bill Duffy, informed him of the signing Monday. Duffy was flying back from Europe and unavailable for comment.


Huge, Huge loss for the Thuggets.
