The Knicks have heeded Willy Hernangomez's trade request and will send the young center to the Hornets for forward Johnny O'Bryant and two future second-round picks, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Yahoo! Sports' Shams Charania first reported that a deal was being finalized.
The picks the Knicks are receiving will reportedly be in 2020 and 2021, which provides an interesting symmetry—New York gave up their own 2020 second-round pick and a 2021 second rounder to acquire Hernangomez, himself a second-round pick in 2015, from the 76ers on the night Philadelphia drafted him in 2015.
