Kings aquire Hilton Armstrong from Hornets

[.GR]

The New Orleans Hornets have traded center Hilton Armstrong(notes) and cash to the Sacramento Kings in a salary-clearing move, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

The deal removes Hilton’s $2.8 million salary from the Hornets’ payroll, leaving them only a little more than $500,000 over the luxury-tax threshold. The Kings will send the Hornets a future, conditional second-round pick.

Blah, he sucks.

Yeah, I don't really get the point in this. Just for depth I guess.

Hilton has talent, but he just seems to be lacking in so many areas. It almost looks like he's nervous to make mistakes.
