The Celtics will trade Glen Davis to the Orlando Magic for Brandon Bass. Good deal for the Magic in my opinion.
The Orlando Magic have reached an agreement to acquire forward Glen Davis from the Boston Celtics in exchange for forward Brandon Bass in a sign-and-trade deal. Davis will receive a four-year worth about $26 million, a source said.
While Davis was hoping to return to Boston where he won a title in 2008, he had been excited about the possibility of playing with All-Star center and long-time friend Dwight Howard with the Magic. Davis averaged career-highs of 11.7 points and 5.5 rebounds last season with the Celtics. New Orleans, Portland, Atlanta and Philadelphia also expressed interest in the four-year NBA veteran.
Bass averaged career-highs of 11.2 points and 5.6 rebounds with Orlando last season. The sixth-year NBA veteran will make $4 million in each of the next two seasons.
