Magic Haven't Talked Trade With Clippers In Three Weeks

Jun 26, 2013 7:50 PM

Amid reports that the Orlando Magic and Los Angeles Clippers had picked up discussions involving an Arron Afflalo for Eric Bledsoe deal.

Rob Hennigan acknowledged that the two teams had discussions at the time of the NBA Draft Combine in May, but haven't spoken in three weeks.

The Magic seek a point guard of Bledsoe's caliber, while the Clippers will be unable to afford a backup to Chris Paul at the salary he will surely get in the near future.

“We haven’t had a drop or an ounce of communication with the Clippers for almost three weeks,” Hennigan said. “So, if we’re about to make a trade with them, I guess I missed that memo.”
