The Texas Legends announced today that Jerome Randle and Lawrence Hill have been traded to the Maine Red Claws for their 2nd and 3rd round selections in the 2012 NBA Development League Draft.

Randle, a 5-10 guard, was a training camp invite of the Dallas Mavericks, and played in two preseason games averaging 11.0 points and 2.0 assists in 18.0 minutes. Randle is the reigning Pac-10 player of the year and earned an AP honorable mention All-American honors for his senior season at Cal where he averaged 18.6 points, 4.3 assists, and made 93.3% of his shots from the free throw line.

Hill, a 6-8 forward, was invited to the Sacramento Kings training camp and appeared in one preseason game where he grabbed one rebound. Hill has played in the NBA Summer League for the Phoenix Suns, and the Golden State Warriors.

The Texas Legends came to an agreement with Greg Ostertag and he will make his debut Thursday against Rio Grande Valley.

Ostertag spent most of his NBA career with the Utah Jazz and was one of the the best shot-blockers in the league, swatting a shot every 11.4 minutes of playing time.

"I missed playing,'' Ostertag said. "I shouldn't have quit when I did and I feel like I got to give it one last shot to see if I can make it happen.

"I know there's a lot of naysayers out there who think I couldn't play when I was younger and how am I going to be able to play now? But I'm going to give myself a month or two to get in really good shape and see what happens.''
