Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

The Hornets reduce their payroll by $21 million by trading LaMelo Ball and Josh Green for Naz Reid.

Josh Green for Naz Reid is a clean salary match, allowing them to create a $40.8 million trade exception for Ball.

They also have 12 future first-round picks through 2033.

I like their new team and the direction of the franchise. Ah Jordan sold the team in 2023. Makes sense.
