To Philadelphia:

2M cash

Deal works, as the TPE is worth more than the salary.
ATL accepts. I've been trying to buy prospects for a while, and I finally got one I REALLY like. I've always been a huge fan of Udoh, and I really like his post game improvement. To talk stats a bit, he is 4.5/3.7 with 1.7 blocks on the year in 20 MPG, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. This kid affects the defense a ton in Golden State, when he's in the game they have a team DRTG of 100.6, and when he's out, they have a team DRTG of 112.8, a 12.2 difference in DRTG just when he steps on the floor. Also, when get gets at least 30 MPG, he's 9/6 on 50 FG% and 1.7 blocks. I just can't say enough about this kid, and to get him at a good price is a bonus.
Cut enough cap for about 20 million in cap.
