A fan favorite among many, Trevor Ariza was traded to the LA Lakers for 6'9" forward Brian Cook and 6'5" guard Maurice Evans. Included in the deal was the $2.6 million injury exception the team received for Tony Battie. Bo Outlaw was released to make room on the roster. I hope Bo finds a spot in the Magic organization and management hinted that might be possible. It's great to have him around - maybe as a scout or assistant coach. I think this was a decent trade for the Magic and definitely a good move for Ariza. Ariza is a good player and he will be missed - but I rather see the kid get some playing time and he should fit in nicely with the Lakers.
