We are taking Williams AWFUL contract off the Hornets' hands and they are getting a one-time All-NBA Defensive player in Avery. Turner can play three positions on a VERY reasonable contract and there is NO more Lance for him to fight with (see the Pacer brawl for details). I think KO and Z are washes. We do this to get a look a Zeller and pair him with his brother and to get outside shooting from Marvin (and not to mention an expiring, most importantly) and we reduce our roster by one, allowing us more roster flexibility and we get yet another first rounder.
