    The Toronto Raptors, in a deal designed to create some additional salary-cap space, have agreed to traded forward James Johnson to the Sacramento Kings for a future second-round pick, according to sources with knowledge of the deal.

    The trade could be consummated as soon as Monday, sources said.

    Johnson is scheduled to earn $2.8 million in 2012-13, which is the final year of his current contract.

    I really liked JJ. Seems he had problems with Casey and we did have lots wings players now, i guess his time was up.

    I don't think I've seen the Raps take a 2nd round pick that has worked ...first time for everything?

    Pretty unhappy with this. As wild as JJ was, he still has the potential to be a great player. Guess you only win a war with a coach if you are a star.
