(Sports Network) - The Portland Trail Blazers and Sacramento Kings consummated a trade on draft night.

The Blazers acquired the draft rights of forward Jeff Pendergraph from Sacramento in exchange for guard Sergio Rodriguez and the draft rights of forward Jon Brockman along with cash.

Brockman was taken in the second round, 38th overall out of the University of Washington. He will now team with former Husky and good friend Spencer Hawes in Sacramento. During the 2008-09 season, Brockman averaged 14.9 points and 11.5 rebounds per game as a senior.

Pendergraph, taken 31st overall, the first pick of the second round, will play for head coach Nate McMillan, the father of ASU guard Jamelle McMillan. Last season, Pendergraph averaged 14.5 points and 8.2 rebounds.
