NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- The New Orleans Hornets, off to a 2-24 start, traded
shooting guard David Wesley to the Houston Rockets for Jim Jackson and
Bostjan Nachbar on Monday.
Wesley played for the Hornets since the 1997-98 season, compiling averages
of 14.7 points and 4.6 assists. He is the franchise's career leader in
games
started and ranks in the top three in 12 other categories.
Wesley averaged 13.9 points and 4.2 assists in 26 games with the Hornets
this season.
``Jim and Bostjan are going to fit well into our system and should be able
to help us with their offensive skills,'' Hornets general manager Allan
Bristow said in a statement.
``We're optimistic that the addition of these two players and the return
of
some of our injured players will give us a great boost on the court.''
