Lakers trade JaVale McGee to Cleveland, sign Marc Gasol to two-year, minimum contract

The Los Angeles Lakers have reached an agreement to sign Marc Gasol to a two-year contract.
The NBA champions traded JaVale McGee and a future 2nd round pick to the Cleveland Cavaliers to make room for the Spanish big man.
The Lakers are also acquiring Alfonso McKinnie and Jordan Bell from the Cavaliers.

Per ESPN, Gasol will be signing for the equivalent of the veteran’s minimum salary for a player with 10-plus years of service in the league of $2.56 million per year, according to ESPN’s Bobby Marks. However, because Gasol will be signing a two-year deal, L.A. will not receive the typical cap relief that comes from signing a player to the veteran’s minimum.
