Report: Lopez dealt in 3-team trade

Posted July 25, 2012 on AP on Fox
PLAYERS: Robin Lopez,  Hakim Warrick,  Wesley Johnson,  Jerome Dyson,  Brad Miller
TEAMS: Phoenix Suns,  Minnesota Timberwolves,  New Orleans Pelicans
A person familiar with negotiations says the Hornets, Suns and Timberwolves have agreed to a multiplayer deal sending 7-foot center Robin Lopez and forward Hakim Warrick from Phoenix to New Orleans, while moving forward Wesley Johnson and a first-round draft pick from Minnesota to Phoenix. The person told The Associated Press about the trade on condition of anonymity Wednesday because it has not been announced pending the completion of some routine logistical matters. The deal also sends guard Jerome Dyson and retiring center Brad Miller's $5.1 million contract from New Orleans to Minnesota, allowing the Timberwolves to clear space under the NBA's salary cap as they pursue free agents. Minnesota also will receive two second-round draft picks from New Orleans, while the Hornets will receive cash.
