BREAKING: Hornets Shock The NBA With Dwight Howard Trade A Day Before NBA Draft

Nets get Howard's expiring contract while the Hornets get Mozgov and a couple of 2nd rounders.

I don't get why the Hornets do this trade.

 

[bksballer89]

Love this trade for Brooklyn

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Shocked he's still playing, honestly

 

[The Q]

Hornets save 7 mil.

Looks like they are close to the tax line. This gets them comfortably under it.

Sounds like everyone's doing the Lakers a favor.

 

[PnkPanther]

I didn't realize he was still in the league

looks like a pre-cursor to another move if you ask me.

either that or Kupchak just REALLY REALLY loves Timo Mozgov. LOL

This is a safeguard against being above the tax line if the cap isn't where it's projected (again).

He is 32 anc averaged 17 ppg and 13 rpg. I will take that but his salary is just way too high

This HAS to be the first of many moves. They were projected $118M now they are down tl $111M. Still around 10M over the cap but under the tax line. I expect to see a lot of moves from them including moving Batum, maybe Marvin and Kemba

Seems like he's been in the league forever and was having back and feet trouble for most of his career

If I remember correctly he was one of the last classes where you could be drafted from H.S.

The Hornets are clearly just happy to not be a tax payer.

Playing for Clifford (an assistant when Howard was in Orlando) he had a bounce back year. Played really well for Charlotte.
