"CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- The Charlotte Bobcats traded forward Brandon Hunter to the Orlando Magic on Monday in exchange for guard Keith Bogans.

Bogans was selected out of Kentucky by Milwaukee with the 43rd overall pick in the 2003 draft but was traded to Orlando on draft night. He appeared in 73 games as a rookie, averaging 6.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists.

Hunter was picked by the Bobcats in the expansion draft after playing his rookie season in Boston, averaging 3.5 points and 3.3 rebounds in 36 games."

Fantasy Impact

On a team like the Bobcats, Bogans could tear something up. He looks to be a better option than Eddie House as a backup SG, and could become the starting SG if he proves good enough to let Gerald Wallace take Jason Kapono's spot at SF. Bogans has a better outside game than Wallace, so he'd seem like a better fit at SG.

The Magic should be able to use Hunter after stacking themselves up somewhat at the G positions... I don't seem him getting enough time to be of any real fantasy value, but I'll let you know if that changes.
