Portland will also create a $7.2 million and a $1.7 million trade exception as part of the deal. Both exceptions will expire next January.

The Portland Trail Blazers have agreed to trade Kent Bazemore, Anthony Tolliver and two future second-round draft picks to the Sacramento Kings in a deal that sheds $12.5 million in salary, NBA sources told ESPN.

The Kings will send Trevor Ariza, Wenyen Gabriel and Caleb Swanigan to the Blazers, whose luxury tax bill drops to $7 million with the deal.

Bazemore ($19.3 million) and Tolliver ($1.6 million) are on expiring contracts. Ariza ($12.2 million) has a partial guarantee of $1.8 million on his $12.8 million contract next season. The Blazers will have until June 30 to pick up or decline that option.

Portland will also create a $7.2 million and a $1.7 million trade exception as part of the deal. Both exceptions will expire next January.
