    Quentin Richardson will head to the Raptors through a sign-and-trade deal that will complete the Andrea Bargnani swap, according to Newsday's Al Iannazzone (Twitter link). Marc Stein of ESPN.com speculated last night that Richardson or Earl Barron would likely be signed-and-traded to the Raptors to make the numbers in the Bargnani deal work. It's unclear exactly how much Richardson will earn, but it probably won't be the hefty $5MM payday that Keith Bogans is getting to be part of the Clippers/Nets blockbuster.

    Since he's holding the deal hostage he's probably going to get a little more than he's worth, meaning more than the veteran's minimum, maybe in the $2-million range.

    Richardson has reportedly signed a three year deal, two years guaranteed.

    Seems like he's excited...
