This is what I was thinking as well. Either PFT got more credible, or Gantt is no longer credible. Don't know which way to lean.

99% of what PFT does is post links to other peoples articles.....how much credibility do you need to do that?

Yes, I realize some of it is speculative BS to rile up people to get more clicks and ad revenue but that part is so obvious you can filter it out.

I think the PFT hate comes from Florio's (often dumb) commentary... when they just report the news, they're pretty good.

I think Gantt's presence will increase their quality not decrease his... he's a good reporter. Hell his updates on twitter were usually way better than the normal Panthers stuff online.

we will finally see if Gantt is a reporter at all.

as a beat writer he traded loyalty for leaks = truly lame and totally filtered, white hat reporting

as a whatever the hell he was after that he was a bitter twitter with a bit of an axe to grind = less filtered, grey hat info. dump

as a PFT source we will see his chops. PFT is a black hat prognosticating bottom feeder who has to take risk to generate respect. I am not optimistic for him in this arena but it is up to him to show us what kind of true skill he has as an independent pundit.

      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
