Involved in the Thomas Robinson trade the Suns are trading away. Now they have traded G Sebastian Telfair. Telfair was traded to the Toronto Raptors for the one and only Hamed Haddadi and a second round draft pick. The Suns have been very aggressive so far in the last hours until the trading deadline.

Thomas Robinson traded

The Sacramento Kings have traded their #5 pick to the Houston Rockets. Thomas Robinson was traded with Francisco Garcia and Tyler Honeycutt to the Rockets in exchange for Patrick Patterson, Cole Aldrich,  Toney Douglas, and some cash ($1million). The Suns got into the trade to by trading their 2nd round draft pick for Marcus Morris from the Rockets. Now Marcus will be joined with his twin brother Markeiff on the court. This trade could get the Rockets to be a very good playoff contender over the next few years. With a developing Robinson he could turn out to be one of the leagues top big men.
