Breaking News: Hornets/Magic close to Chris Paul deal

[zigomanisinsider]

Rumors of New Orleans point guard Chris Paul coming to Orlando for Vince Carter and Jameer Nelson seem to be more real than the Magic are saying.

Local 6 sports director David Pingalore, through his NBA sources, is confirming the deal could be completed as soon as Orlando Magic General Manager Otis Smith finds a third team for Hornets Center Emeka Okafor.

If for some reason that deal does not work, the Magic have a backup plan.
