By The Sports Xchange

Traded four times in a week, point guard Luke Ridnour was waived by the Toronto Raptors on Thursday.

Ridnour, 34, expected the move because of his $2.75 million non-guaranteed contract.

The week of the NBA draft, Ridnour's roller coaster began.

The Orlando Magic traded Ridnour to the Memphis Grizzlies for Janis Timma, a 2013 second-round draft pick on June 24 and the next day, Ridnour was traded to the Charlotte Hornets for forward Matt Barnes. Only three hours later, Ridnour was sent to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Jeremy Lamb and an undisclosed draft choice.

On June 30, Ridnour went to the Raptors in exchange for Croatian power forward Tomislav Zubcic.
