The Charlotte Hornets are trading 7-foot center Nick Richards and one second-round pick to the Phoenix Suns for Josh Okogie and three second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

before we traded for Gafford, Richards was the caliber of backup I was interested in. I believe he is a solid backup center, but I believe last time we played them he didn't look good. Playing for a bad team could have impacted that. It looks like Hornet fans were not high on him. Regardless, I don't think PHX gave up much. Don't think it changes things much, but he is probably more productive than the other centers they have.
