According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski The Chicago Bulls, Orlando Magic and Charlotte Hornets are putting the finishing touches on a swap amongst the clubs that would send center Timofey Mozgof ( who was just involved in the Dwight Howard trade, which just became official yesterday) to the Magic, center Bismack Biyombo to the Hornets and guard Julyan Stone to the Bulls. The Bulls also send Jerian Grant to the Magic.

Biyombo returns to Charlotte where he started his career, playing from the 2011-12 until the 2013-14 season where he tallied averages of 4.4 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game. Mozgov will see diminished minutes, as he will likely be the number three center on the Magic.
Update: the Bulls have waived Julyan Stone.
