RealGM has learned from a source that forward Donnell Harvey has indeed been traded to the Phoenix Suns inexchange for center Robert Archibald and Phoenix's 2004 second-round pick.

The Magic plan on eventually sending this pick to the Atlanta Hawks to pay off a second-round pick that is due this year from a 2000 trade that sent guard Anthony Johnson to the Orlando Magic.

Because of this, Orlando can now keep their second-round pick this year, which figures to be a high one.

The source says that Harvey wasn't in condition and didn't work on improving his game. Those are said to be the reasons for the trade.

The trade cannot happen until Tuesday though because Harvey signed with the Magic on Sept 23rd and under league rules cannot be traded for 90 days.

We first broke this story yesterday afternoon and RealGM's Howard Mass followed it throughout the evening.

During the Orlando Magic and Toronto Raptors game yesterday afternoon, word of Harvey getting dealt broke when Magic announcer David Steele told the viewing audience that Magic forward Donnell Harvey did not make the trip with the team because a trade involving him is pending.

We then received word that Suns center Robert Archibald didn't accompany his team to Los Angeles for their game against the Lakers.

Coincidently, we learned via the RealGM trade checker that if the two were to be swapped for one another, the trade would work under salary cap and CBA rules. (Trade ID:1354328).

There was no word from either side on where the other was headed but we believed that it was very possible that Harvey and Archibald had been swapped for each other with prehaps a second-round draft pick also going Orlando's way.
