With two days remaining before Tuesday's NBA draft, the Hornets are involved in trade discussions with the Toronto Raptors to get two first-round picks, according to league sources Saturday night.

The possible deal would involve the Hornets trading center Jamaal Magloire to Toronto for the Raptors' picks at Nos. 7 and 16. No other players have been mentioned in the trade discussions, sources said.


This would be a good deal for us. It's obvious Magloire wants out. Now if we can get this trade done, we'll have 3 first round picks. The chances of us moving up to acquire either Bogut, Williams, or Paul dramatically improves. If we don't decide to trade up, we would still be able to get one of those point guards and a big body up front.
