Breaking news --

Lynx trade Sam and Burse to Seattle for #6 pick and Lassiter. Minnesota now has the #6 and #7 picks.

Nancy Lieberman reported earlier this week that this was essentially one half of a three-way deal, so Minnesota might now send both the #6 and #7 picks to Charlotte for #3 (Whalen). We'll see if they get that part done later today.

Word is that there is at least one other big trade imminent. Will keep you informed.
