transfers news

Toronto 7.3.09
Toronto sign Mensah-Bonsu

Toronto have signed center Pops Mensah-Bonsu, 25, for the remainder of the season. Mensah-Bonsu was released Wednesday from his 10-day contract with the San Antonio Spurs. In three games with the Spurs this season, he averaged 5.0 points and 3.3 rebounds in 6.7 minutes.

New York 7.3.09
Knicks sign Nichols to 10-day contract

The New York Knicks have signed guard Demetris Nichols to a 10-day contract. Nichols was a second-round selection by Portland in the 2007 NBA Draft, and was traded to the Knicks. However, he was released by New York after playing in five preseason games, and split his rookie season between Cleveland and Chicago. Nichols saw action in two games with the Bulls this season before being released in November.

San Ant. 5.3.09
Spurs sign Drew Gooden

The San Antonio Spurs have signed Drew Gooden for the remainder of the season. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. Gooden joined the Spurs after buying out his contract earlier this week in Sacramento, to where the Chicago Bulls traded the veteran power forward last month. Gooden averaged 13.1 points, 8.7 rebounds in 32 games this season.

Cleveland 5.3.09
Joe Smith joins Cavaliers

The Cleveland Cavaliers have signed forward Joe Smith, who was waived by the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday. He is expected to fill the void left by forward Ben Wallace, who went down with a fractured leg. Smith has played in in 36 games this season, averaging 6.6 points and 4.5 rebounds.

Boston 27.2.09
Marbury signs with Celtics

The Boston Celtics announced the signing of guard Stephon Marbury confirming what has been rumored since the New York Knicks requested waivers on the 12-year veteran on Tuesday. Marbury was the center of controversy during his five years in New York, feuding with coaches and skipping games. He took a long leave of absence when his father died in December 2007, followed by season-ending ankle surgery. He had not played since Jan. 11, 2008.

New York 25.2.09
Knicks and Marbury finally part ways

The New York Knicks and Stephon Marbury have finally parted ways and the troublesome point guard is free to join a playoff contender. The team released a statement saying an agreement between the Knicks and Marbury had been reached, but did not disclose financial terms. The 12-year veteran reportedly refused head coach Mike D'Antoni's request to play in a road game against the Detroit Pistons on November 26. Marbury was then suspended and fined by the team.

Houston 20.2.09
Rockets trade Alston to Magic

The Houston Rockets traded point guard Rafer Alston to Orlando and acquired Magic forward Brian Cook and Memphis guard Kyle Lowry on Thursday. Memphis also received the Magic's first-round draft pick as part of the deal. The three-team swap came one day after Rockets star Tracy McGrady announced that he'll have season-ending microfracture surgery on his troublesome left knee. The Magic, meanwhile, needed an experienced point guard after Jameer Nelson suffered a potentially season-ending shoulder injury February 2.

New York 20.2.09
Knicks acquire Hughes and Wilcox

The New York Knicks acquired guard Larry Hughes from the Chicago Bulls in exchange for forward Tim Thomas, guard Anthony Roberson and center Jerome James in one of their two deals before the trade deadline. The Bulls also sent forward Andres Nocioni, center Drew Gooden and reserves Cedric Simmons and Michael Ruffin to the Sacramento Kings for center Brad Miller and swingman John Salmons in their second trade in two days.

Also Thursday, the New York Knicks acquired Oklahoma City's Chris Wilcox, who became available when Tyson Chandler failed his physical on Wednesday, nullifying a four-player trade between the Thunder and New Orleans Hornets. No specific reason was given as to why Chandler didn't pass the physical. Oklahoma City gets seldom-used forward Malik Rose in the deal. Wilcox and Rose have contracts that run out at the end of the season.

LA Lakers 19.2.09
Lakers deal Mihm to Memphis

The Los Angeles Lakers traded oft-injured center Chris Mihm to the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for a conditional second round pick in the 2013 draft. The 29-year-old Mihm appeared in 18 games for the Lakers this season, averaging two points and 1.9 rebounds while playing 4.8 minutes per game for the overall NBA leaders. The move should also save Los Angeles about $2m in salary and luxury tax considerations.

Minnesota 19.2.09
Kings, Wolves swap players

The Sacramento Kings shipped forward Shelden Williams and point guard Bobby Brown to the the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for guard Rashad McCants and center Calvin Booth, a deal that actually helps both teams. McCants is averaging 9.1 points in 34 games this season, but has appeared in only 6 games this year after falling out of favor with the coaching staff. Williams' opportunity for playing time is in Minnesota after the Wolves lost Al Jefferson for the season with a torn ACL earlier this month and had a big hole in the frontcourt behind rookie Kevin Love.

Oklahoma 17.2.09
Trade sends Hornets' Chandler to Oklahoma City

New Orleans and Oklahoma City finalized a deal Tuesday that will send center Tyson Chandler to the Thunder. In exchange for Chandler, Oklahoma City will send forward Joe Smith, center Chris Wilcox and the draft rights to center Devon Hardin to New Orleans. Chandler is averaging 8.8 points and 8.3 rebounds this season, while Smith has averaged 6.6 points and 4.5 rebounds in 36 games. Wilcox is averaging 8.4 points and 5.3 rebounds in 37 games this season.

Miami 14.2.09
Heat's Marion heading to Toronto in exchange for O'Neal

The Miami Heat and Toronto Raptors have agreed to a four-player swap that sends center Jermaine O'Neal and forward Jamario Moon to Florida, and forward Shawn Marion and guard Marcus Banks to Canada. The Raptors also gained cash in the deal, while sending the Heat a conditional draft pick.

Denver 8.1.09
Denver trade Atkins Oklahoma for Petro

The Denver Nuggets sent point guard Chucky Atkins and a protected first-round pick in this summer to Oklahoma City for center Johan Petro and the Thunder's second-round pick this year. With an NBA-worst 5-30 record, the Thunder have an eye on their future, and Petro wasn't a part of it. Atkins, who has averaged 10.4 points in nine NBA seasons, played in only 14 games this season in Denver after a knee injury in camp.

Oklahoma 31.12.08
Nenad Krstic joins Thunder

Tha Oklahoma City Thunder have signed Nenad Krstic from Russian side Triumph Lyubertsy. Because the 25-year-old was a restricted free agent, the New Jersey Nets had a week to match Oklahoma City's offer sheet to Krstic and they declined to do so. Thunder officials wouldn't confirm details of their offer, thought to be a three-year deal worth $15.8m. The Nets extended a qualifying offer to Krstic this summer, but he instead signed with Triumph Lyubertsy and averaged 10.4 points and 5.2 rebounds in seven games.

Memphis 26.12.08
Rockets traded Francis to Grizzlies

Oft-injured guard Steve Francis was traded from the Houston Rockets to the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday for a conditional second-round draft pick in 2011. The Grizzlies also receive a second-round pick for 2009 and cash. That pick originally belonged to Memphis. It was acquired by the Rockets during last year's draft, part of the deal that brought forward Donte Greene to Houston. Greene was later traded to Sacramento as part of the trade that brought Ron Artest to the Rockets. The 31-year-old Francis has not played this season.
