The Hornets' treasure trove of assets can be cashed in before next year's trade deadline in a move that puts them over the top. The bevy of first-round picks Jeff Peterson has acquired and retained can be used to make a home run-style swing to add to Charlotte's core of LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, and whomever they draft in the 2025 lottery.

Although Charlotte isn’t yet mathematically eliminated from postseason contention, NBA’s longest current playoff drought is approaching nine years.

After another season of their star players missing significant time due to injuries, the Charlotte Hornets decided to tear down and rebuild...again.

Jeff Peterson, the Charlotte Hornets' President of Basketball Operations, took no time off following Thursday's busy NBA trade deadline. Less than 24 hours after the 3 P.M. deadline buzzer sounded, Peterson made yet another move to fill the void that was created by trading Vasilije Micic to the Phoenix Suns.
