While Gay is long and athletic enough to get his own shot seemingly anywhere on the court, he’s extremely inefficient from the field, which is a large reason the Grizzlies decided to trade his contract last year after hiring former ESPN NBA analyst John Hollinger, the architect of Player Efficiency Rating (PER). So far this season, Gay was averaging 19.7 points and 7.5 rebounds per game, both career highs, but he was shooting a career low 38.8 percent from the field. Gay is joined by fellow Raptors Quincy Acy and Aaron Gray in the deal, with Greivis Vasquez, Patrick Patterson, John Salmons and Chuck Hayes headed to Toronto. Gay was pulled from Toronto’s starting lineup tonight at the Staples Center where they were set to take on the Lakers in Kobe Bryant‘s return. Earlier tonight, Yahoo’s Adrian Wojnarowski broke the news the Toronto Raptors had traded Rudy Gay to the Sacramento Kings.
