Former Ohio State Guard Duane Washington Jr. Traded to Charlotte Hornets

Duane Washington Jr.'s professional basketball journey will continue with his fourth NBA organization in as many years.

Washington has been dealt from the New York Knicks to the Charlotte Hornets as part of a three-team deal that sends star forward Karl-Anthony Towns from the Minnesota Timberwolves to the Knicks for forward Julius Randle and guard Donte DiVincenzo.

The Hornets are receiving three second-round picks (two via Knicks, one via Minnesota), along with DaQuan Jeffries, Charlie Brown and Duane Washington Jr., to complete the Karl-Anthony Towns-Julius Randle-Donte DiVincenzo trade, sources tell me, @JonKrawczynski and @FredKatz.
