Toronto gets Serge Ibaka. Great move for them. I think he can be really good in the right situation.

The pick going to Cleveland is top 55 protected. Hornets can just waive Andersen with no cap impact, whereas the Cavs have a luxury tax bill, so getting Andersen off the books means a lower luxury tax bill at the end of the year. Hornets get some money for doing the paperwork. Seems essentially meaningless, but maybe the Hornets got $100,000 or $200,000 out of it? ¿ △ ?

Actually the pick is so heavily protected they won't get it. So basically hornets did it for some money |
