Luke Ridnour Traded To Fourth Team In One Week
As the Inquisitr previously reported, NBA player Luke Ridnour was traded three times in the span of just 24 hours. Though, Luke just received word that he will be on the move once again, meaning he has been a member of five teams in the last week alone.
According to ESPN, Ridnour ended the 2014-15 regular season with the Orlando Magic before being dealt to the Memphis Grizzlies, who in turn shipped him to the Charlotte Hornets, who then flipped him to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who ended up traded him to the Toronto Raptors. Whew!
The 34-year-old point guard is a 12-year NBA veteran, who averaged 4.0 points and 2.0 assists in 47 games last season for the Magic. In a nutshell, Ridnour has been a part of more teams this offseason than points averaged per game last year.
For his career, the former Oregon Duck boasts 9.3 points per game, to go along with 4.5 assists, and 2.3 rebounds.
Here are immediate reactions from Twitter, and some of them are pretty funny.

Good stuff, but the chances of Luke laughing along are probably low.
Will Toronto be Ridnour’s last stop on the trade carousel? What do you think?
