SACRAMENTO, CA - The Kings obviously weren't finished tweaking their roster after Wednesday's big trade sending Brad Miller and John Salmons to Chicago in a three-team, five-player trade.

Before the NBA's Thursday trade deadline, News10 confirmed Sacramento was moving point guard Bobby Brown and forward Shelden Williams to the Minnesota Timberwolves for backcourt guard Rashad McCants and center Calvin Booth.

The Kings then waived power forward Mikki Moore, and then sent a second-round pick to Boston, acquiring point guard Will Solomon from the Raptors, with Toronto getting Celtics center Patrick O'Bryant.

The trades are pending league approval.

Moore had only $2 million of his $6-million contract guaranteed for next season. The contracts of McCants, Booth, and Solomon are also up after this season, giving the Kings more breathing room for future salary negotiations.
