The Toronto Raptors and Sacramento Kings have agreed to a trade. Here’s the Sacramento Bee with the details:
Kings general manager Pete D’Alessandro said he owed it to Kings fans to be aggressive after years of suffering through relocation discussions and cost-cutting moves.
The Kings took a bold step away from the frugal ways of the last ownership group by agreeing to acquire forward Rudy Gay as part of a seven-player trade Sunday.
Gay, 27, comes from Toronto with a $17.9 million salary this season and a player option for $19.3 million next season.
The Kings will send Chuck Hayes, Patrick Patterson, John Salmons and Greivis Vasquez to Toronto as part of the deal. Sacramento also gets forward Quincy Acy and center Aaron Gray.
The NBA must approve the trade today to make the deal official. All players also have to pass physicals.
