The Charlotte Hornets are trading center Nick Richards and a second-round draft pick to the Phoenix Suns for forward Josh Okogie and three second-round picks, sources told ESPN.

The Hornets are sending a 2025 Denver second-rounder to Phoenix, which trades a 2026 Nuggets second-rounder and 2031 second-rounders (Denver, Phoenix) to Charlotte, sources said.

The Suns, who rank last in the NBA in points from their starting center, land much-needed help at the position with the 7-foot Richards, who is averaging 8.
