The Orlando Magic have notified Shabazz Napier and Andrew Nicholson they will likely be traded, sources tell Basketball

[OrlDave]

Wait.. is this sauce even legit?

Who knows anymore. Only guy I actually trust is Woj.

[TodGre]

Anybody surprised that neither of these guys were traded today? My guess is Napier goes down to the D-league for the rest of the year to get more experience and try to improve. Even if we keep him another yr, he's on a very small rookie contract, so doesn't hurt the team in the least. Plus could still keep him if Jennings leaves this summer, or if Watson gets traded.

Not moving Napier is Hennigan's first miss on the zero-downside, all-upside moves I've been talking about lately. His $1.3M salary next year is guaranteed and we might need to play him if we want to trade him this summer to clear that space, as little as it is.

Darn, I guess Aaron Brooks screwed us.

Were supposed to have a 13 man roster right? so if andrew and napier were moved wouldent we need to replace them?

I haven't counted but Napier was for Aaron Brooks, an expiring contract.

[zuppafly]

Yeah, Nicholson staying makes sense because of depth, Napier...not so much.

[BadMofoPimp]

Napier was getting all those minutes to boost his trade appeal. I doubt he gets many minutes here in out.

Glad Nicholson stayed tho.

That's exactly right!!!!! Get to wear my jersey for at least 30 more games!

[tooler]

Skiles should say to hell with it and start him one game. God bless him.

[seeingstars]

Im really glad AN stayed. I dont see a more offensively talented secret bench guy around. Extend him this summer for cheap

[seeingstars]

One in the hand is worth two in the busch

[ORLMagicGirl15]

Now this is awkward.

[Xatticus]

Surely we could have included Napier in the deal that sent Frye to that team that LeBron is in charge of? I thought LeBron liked Shabazz?
