Brevin Knight, a former standout at Seton Hall Prep and Stanford, was traded Wednesday from the L.A. Clippers to the Utah Jazz. In return, the Clippers got fellow point guard Jason Hart.
Knight, 32, averaged 4.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists and 22.6 minutes in 74 games last season. He finished second in the NBA with a 4.62-1 assists-to-turnover ratio.
A native of East Orange, N.J., Knight was a first-round pick (16th overall) overall for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 1997 NBA Draft.
Hart, 30, rejoins the Clippers after averaging 2.9 points, 1.5 assists, 1.0 rebound and 10.6 minutes in 57 games for the Jazz last season. He played in just two of Utah’s 12 playoff games.
