CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Golden State Warriors found a home for the disgruntled swingman Stephen Jackson on Monday, sending him to the Charlotte Bobcats in a four-player deal that pairs him with coach Larry Brown.

The Bobcats sent shooting guard Raja Bell and forward Vladimir Radmanovic to the Warriors for Jackson and guard Acie Law.

The deal gives Jackson his wish: a ticket out of town after his difficult relationship with Warriors coach Don Nelson, who acknowledged last week they had been trying to trade him.

Charlotte takes on Jackson's contract, which has three years and $28 million left after this season. Golden State inherits Radmanovic's deal, worth about $13.5 million over this season and next. Bell and Law are in the final year of their contracts.

Bobcats general manager Rod Higgins said Jackson was on his way from Milwaukee, where the Warriors played Saturday, to Orlando, where the Bobcats played later Monday.

"We had an opportunity to bring a starter to our lineup," Higgins said. "A guy we envision starting at the (shooting) guard spot. He's coming off arguably his best season last year. I spoke to Stephen, and he's very excited to come here."

The 6-foot-8 Jackson gives Charlotte, the NBA's lowest-scoring team at 82.4 points a game, an immediate offensive boost. He's averaging 16.6 points in nine games this season, after averaging 20.7 points and 6.5 assists last season.

But the 31-year-old Jackson also brings off-court baggage, from suspensions to his recent trade demands and a sideline blowup with Nelson in an exhibition game. He recently relinquished his captain title with Golden State.

"People's past are indeed that," Higgins said. "Our relationship with him is going to start today. We will embrace him and work with him to, first of all, try to improve our basketball team, and secondly, to bring him into our core and our organization."

The 33-year-old Bell departs after being acquired by Charlotte from Phoenix in a trade less than a year ago. He's been playing this season with a partially torn ligament in his left wrist and is averaging 12 points.

He also could provide needed veteran leadership on Golden State's young roster that includes rookie Stephen Curry and second-year pro Anthony Morrow.

The 6-foot-10 Radmanovic was acquired last season in a trade with the Los Angeles Lakers and is an outside shooting threat that will give the Warriors more size. He had been miscast this season as Brown had him playing power forward because of depth issues.

Law is averaging 6.2 points and gives Charlotte another option in its backcourt.

But Brown's biggest challenge will be getting Jackson to fit into his demanding system after yet another roster shuffle for a team off to a disappointing 3-6 start. The Bobcats have made five trades involving 17 players in 11 months since Brown began his record ninth NBA head coaching job last season.
