NEW ORLEANS (AP) - The New Orleans Hornets have agreed to trade reserve point guard Antonio Daniels and a 2014 second-round draftpick to Minnesota in exchange for forward Darius Sangaila and guard Bobby Brown.
A person with direct knowledge of the trade confirmed it to The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymitybecause the trade had not been officially announced.
The move will cut the Hornets' payroll by $1.3 million this season.
Sangaila has been in the NBA for six seasons, averaging 7 points. Brown, who was on the Hornets' summer league team in 2008, played 68 games with Sacramento and Minnesota last season, his first in the NBA.
