Shams Charania: Heading into Hornets restricted free agency, Tre Mann has fully recovered from his back disc herniation – which limited him to just 13 games last season – and has participated in all of Charlotte's offseason activity and 5-on-5s, his agent Aaron Turner said.
I think your only NBA endorser right now is Matas Buzelis, right? Todd Krinsky: Yeah. We also have Tre Mann, who wears Iverson’s product. He’s a big Iverson fan, so we decided for him to wear Iverson’s product. But, yeah, that’s who we have right now. We’ve got a couple of young kids that are going to play in college this upcoming year, like Nate (Ament) and Darius (Acuff), and then we’re still looking for some other players, too.
Scott Agness: Myles Turner (illness) and Bennedict Mathurin (left calf soreness) have been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday v Hornets. Tony Bradley (illness) is out. No LaMelo Ball, Tre Mann, Brandon Miller or Grant Williams for CHA.
How could Charlotte approach the offseason and free agency? When Ball signed a five-year, $204 million extension in 2023, the intention was that he would be the face of the franchise. But that new contract was under the previous ownership and management group. Now with a full year to evaluate, general manager Jeff Peterson will need to decide if Ball is a foundational player or someone they should explore moving for significant draft compensation and players. Ball has played like an All-Star but is on pace to appear in fewer than 50 games for a third straight season. The Hornets will enter the offseason well below the luxury tax and again should be a facilitator for teams looking to shed contracts. Their lone free agents are Tre Mann, Seth Curry and Taj Gibson. -- Marks
