The Portland Trail Blazers have traded for Moe Harkless. Harkless started his career with the Orlando Magic in 2012 when he was selected with the 15th overall pick. Now he will be moving on to the Trail Blazers.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski:
Orlando is trading forward Moe Harkless to Portland for a future second-round pick, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

With Harkless, the Blazers add some wing depth with Harkless. Last season he averaged 3.5 ppg, 2.2 rpg, and 0.7 steals. Not someone who can help them win a championship, but the Blazers need some depth after their loss of LaMarcus Aldridge, Wesley Matthews and Nicholas Batum. The only remaining starter is Damian Lilard, and that puts them in a bad position. Are the Blazers headed to the lottery? The Magic on the other hand are opening up way for their scoring guard Mario Hezonga and their youthful players.
