Hornets acquire Tyus Jones, two picks from Magic
Orlando Magic cleared $1.4 million in luxury tax and created a $7 million trade exception by trading Tyus Jones and two second-round picks for cash, sources said.
- Today, the Charlotte Hornets acquired guard Tyus Jones from the Orlando Magic for cash considerations, Jeff Peterson, Charlotte Hornets President of Basketball Operations, announced in Charlotte.
- To avoid the luxury tax, the Magic moved $1.4 million below the line and created a $7 million trade exception by trading Tyus Jones without salary, according to Yossi Gozlan's Cap Sheets.
- This season, Jones averaged 3.0 points, 2.4 assists, and will be on his fifth team in four years after a career-best season at Duke, where he was NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player.
- Charlotte gains two future second-round picks, boosting its draft assets to 11 first-rounders and 14 second-rounders over seven years, while Orlando drops to 13 players and has two weeks to meet the 14-player roster minimum.
- ESPN's Shams Charania first reported the trade roughly 17 hours before the deadline as Tyus Jones faced trade rumors due to his contract and underwhelming play.
