Hornets fans and visitors,

The purpose of this mega thread is for centralized chat and discussion of anything related to the 2024 NBA Free Agency, including fan-proposed trades, rather than numerous self posts or trade machine images/links which really don't need their own threads.

Do we still have an open roster spot? Once we resign Bridges we should be good numbers-wise, right?

We may cut Bertans and JT

I think we’ll cut Bertans and Reggie, and then bring in James Nnaji as our 3rd big instead of Bolden.

I don't think Nnaji will come over until we rlly need him or he improves a lot. Apparently Spanish league practices more than they play (that's important for a non rotation player)
