Cavs trade West, Telfair to Minnesota
CLEVELAND, The Cleveland Cavaliers traded guards Delonte West and Sebastian Telfair to the Minnesota Timberwolves Monday, the teams said.
In return, the Timberwolves sent guard Ramon Sessions, center Ryan Hollins and a 2013 second-round draft pick to Cleveland.
West averaged 8.8 points in 60 games, including three starts, during the 2009-10 season for Cleveland.
This month he was sentenced to electronic monitoring, community service and psychological counseling stemming from a 2007 traffic stop in which police found three guns hidden in a guitar case he had aboard a three-wheeled motorcycle.
Telfair went back to Minnesota, for whom he played from 2007-08.
Sessions averaged 8.2 points on a career-high 45.6 percent shooting last season for the Timberwolves.
Hollins, a 7-foot center, averaged 6.1 points on 55.8 percent shooting along with 2.8 rebounds for Minnesota in 2009-10.
