Phoenix also picks up a second round selection from Toronto in the trade. Haddadi had been acquired by the Raptors as part of the trade that saw them acquire Rudy Gay last January though he hasn't hit the floor once for Toronto. The 7'2" center has career averages of 2.0 points and 2.1 rebounds in six minutes of playing time. Telfair on the other hand has been a mildly productive back-up for the Suns, norming 6.0 points, 1.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 17 minutes this season. By acquiring Telfair, the Raptors get a back-up for Kyle Lowry, after giving up Jose Calderon in their previous trade this season. Phoenix on the other hand gets a back-up big man while clearing playing time for 2012 first round pick Kendall Marshall. - AMD, GMA News Here's how the trade looks on the ESPN NBA Trade Machine:In addition to Haddadi, Phoenix also gets 2nd round pick from Toronto for Telfair
