A league source on Monday afternoon confirmed to this newspaper that a trade that would send small forward Matt Barnes and power forward/center Spencer Hawes to Charlotte for wing Lance Stephenson could be done any moment.

The deal in the works was first reported by YahooSports.

Stephenson played his first four seasons with Indiana. In his fourth season in 2013-14, he averaged 13.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists. He did not have similar success at Charlotte this past season, however, averaging 8.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists.
