Charlotte gets a needed wing player in Lee, following MKG’s re-torn labrum. Hairston hasn’t played particularly well this season, but will get one more shot to prove himself in Memphis. Roberts adds point guard depth for Miami, while Andersen gives Memphis depth in the front court. In all, Memphis will receive four(!) 2nd round picks — two from Miami, and two from Charlotte.
