So we get more wings when we need bigs... What a waste. .

We actually need to get better on the wings. The problem is we have loaded up on players that don't help in that regard outside of MKG but his lack of shooting is so bad it falls on the two guard to pick up the slack. Henderson has had moments but is too inconsistent, PJ is still learning the NBA game, and the guy we brought in to make things better is getting shipped out.

Biz is the least of our problems.

Pj is already better then Lamb and Jack is the nba version of Crotchety and Avant. .

I don't understand the belief that Lamb and Jack is a bad get...

Lamb and Jack have smaller contracts than Lopez and Lamb is young with potential to grow into a better player. Furthermore, Lamb wasn't going to work with OKC. they are stacked at guard and have two of the most ball dominating players in the league. Give him a new environment and see what he can do.

That being said, I suspect that this won't be our only move because we still have Neal and PJ. I hope and believe PJ is our sg of the future, but we need to make some other moves for this to make sense... That would leave us with Kemba, Roberts, Hendo, Neal, PJ, Pargo, Taylor, Jack, and Lamb in the backcourt. More than one of those guys needs to move if this trade happens.

I'm just excited to move on from the mistake and it not cost us huge cap space or picks in the process... That being said, what I don't like about this trade is it signifies that the FO hasn't budged on their belief in Al being a core piece. Otherwise, they would keep Lopez and look to move AL before the deadline or let him walk after the season.

      Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
