Robin Lopez traded to the Kings, which means his contract is guaranteed

Lopez could have been waived by Friday to wipe off all but $500,000 of the $10 million due to him. But being involved in a post-July 10 trade means that can't happen.

As such, per Sham, Lopez is due $5.1 million in 2013-14 and $5.3 million in 2014-15.

Reports in recent days have suggested that the Pelicans had found at least one time interested in trading for Lopez to clear up New Orleans salary cap space. Apparently, the Kings were either also interested or willing to pull off another Lopez trade themselves.
