Luke Ridnour might as well keep his bags packed until the start of the 2015-2016 NBA season, because that guy has changed teams more times in 24 hours than many players do over the course of their entire career.
Ridnour, a 34-year-old guard, has an expiring contract. Players with expiring contracts are often thrown into trades, but that usually doesn’t happen three times in less than two days. On Wednesday, Ridnour was traded from the Orlando Magic to the Memphis Grizzlies. The next morning, he was sent from Memphis to the Charlotte Hornets as part of a deal for Matt Barnes. Later that day, Ridnour went to the Oklahoma City Thunder in a trade that sent Jeremy Lamb to Charlotte.
You can see Adrian Wojnarowski’s timeline for more details on the trades.
Hopefully Ridnour held off before he started surfing the internet for apartments in each city. That would have just been a waste of time.
