With the trade deadline just hours away, the Los Angeles Clippers have traded point guard Baron Davis to the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Mo Williams and Jamario Moon.
Cleveland will also receive the Clippers 2011 first-round draft pick.
Davis, 31, joined the Clippers in 2008 much due to the fact that he longed to be closer to home. Davis was a star at UCLA and the Crossroads School in Santa Monica.
For the season, Davis is averaging 12.8 points and 7.0 assists.
The Cavaliers are struggling so far in the post-LeBron era. They snapped a 26-game losing streak earlier this month when they defeated the Clippers in overtime and are 10-47 for the season.
Wlliams, also a point guard, has posted nearly identical stats as Davis, with 13.3 points and 7.1 assists, but he is also only 28 and comes at a much cheaper price. Williams was also named to the All-Star team in 2009.
