While perhaps waiting for the return of Kemba Walker, cut soon by the Pistons, the Hornets have logically strengthened in position 1 after the injury of LaMelo Ball. The Athletic thus announces that the leaders of Charlotte have set their sights on Theo Maledonwith a two-way contract.
As his agent at Basket USA explained, the Eurobasket silver medalist favored seeking this type of contract to stay in the United States. Transferred from the Thunder to the Rockets, then cut, the Frenchman will therefore go back and forth between the G-League and the NBA, and he has already experienced this situation at OKC.
In the short term, he has a great opportunity to show himself while waiting for the return of Lamelo Ball as Terry Rozier’s understudy.
