Even Trade

Memphis received Andre Emmett and sent 2005 second-round pick (#48-Mickael Gelabale); cash considerations in the transaction with Seattle SuperSonics. Both sides generated usable but limited separation after the players, draft outcomes, contract context and identifiable downstream assets were weighed. The C/C grade pairing reflects comparable realized value rather than forced symmetry. Neither side produced enough durable advantage to support a directional result, so the trade is retained as a genuine even.
