DENVER – Prosecutors said Thursday they won’t file charges against Denver Nuggets first-round draft pick Julius Hodge after a woman accused him of trying to sexually assault her. “The decision is based on an inability to prove (a) crime beyond a reasonable doubt,” said Lynn Kimbrough, spokeswoman for Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey.

Kimbrough announced the decision in an e-mail but did not elaborate. She did not immediately return a phone message. A 37-year-old woman filed a complaint on Oct. 18 alleging Hodge, 21, tried to sexually assault her at his condominium, police said.

Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe said the team was “very pleased.”

“You’re talking about a kid who has a spotless record, never been in any trouble of any type,” Vandeweghe said. “This hurts him.”

Hodge’s attorney, Rick Kornfeld, did not immediately return a phone message. He has called the allegation false and baseless.

Hodge, a former N.C. State guard, was the 20th overall pick in June.

Denver Nuggets point guard Andre Miller was arrested on a warrant for failing to appear in court on a traffic citation, police said Thursday.

Detective John White said police arrested Miller on Wednesday at the request of the Colorado State Patrol. Miller had gone to the Denver sheriff’s car pound to retrieve a vehicle stolen from him when he was found to have an outstanding warrant from the State Patrol, police said.

Police were called around 1 p.m., and Miller was released around 4:45 p.m., police said.

Nuggets general manager Kiki Vandeweghe said he believed the citation was for speeding and said Miller probably forgot his court date.

“I’ve done it before, when I missed a court date,” he said.

“Andre is an extremely responsible person. But you’ve got to take care of your traffic tickets,” Vandeweghe said.

Miller played in the Nuggets’ 99-97 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Lakers in Denver Wednesday night, scoring 11 points.

Vandeweghe said Miller was on time for the game.
