News and Notes
Jun 25 Claxton and Acie Law IV were traded from Atlanta to Golden State on Thursday in exchange for Jamal Crawford, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Recommendation: Claxton has played in just two games the last two seasons because of injuries. His contract is also set to expire following the upcoming campaign, which will clear some cap room for the Warriors prior to the star-studded free agent summer of 2010.

Jun 25 The Hawks sent Claxton and Acie Law to the Warriors in exchange for Jamal Crawford on Thursday.

Advice: Claxton has been a huge disappointment in Atlanta after signing a four-year, $25 million deal with the Hawks before the 2006-07 season. Injuries have derailed his career, limiting him to 44 games over the last three seasons, including two in 2008-09.
