The Charlotte Hornets’ summer league roster is starting to take shape as they added four players to the team that will play in Orlando.

Undrafted rookie Przemek Karnowski (Gonzaga) is one of four players to be added to the Charlotte Hornets‘ summer league roster this year. Tai Webster (Nebraska), Mangok Mathiang (Louisville) and Anthony Gill (Yeşilgiresun) were added as well. That now gives them a total of nine players for the Orlando Pro Summer League.

Karnowski averaged 12.2 points per game and 5.8 rebounds per game during his senior year. He went undrafted during the 2017 NBA Draft. The 7’1 center prospect worked out for the Hornets prior to the draft.

As for Webster, he put up 17.3 points per game, 5.1 rebounds per game and 4.0 assists per game in his senior season. Despite the strong numbers, the 6’3 guard went undrafted. The New Zealand native also worked out for Charlotte before the draft.

Mangok Mathiang is a 6’9 big man who averaged 7.8 points per game and 6.0 rebounds per game during his senior year under Rick Pitino. He was passed on by every NBA team during the 2017 Draft. Following the trend, he too worked out for the Hornets in a pre-draft workout.

Gill went undrafted last year and spent this past season playing professionally in Turkey. The  6’8 forward averaged 14.4 points per game and 6.9 rebounds per game in 30 games with Yeşilgiresun. The Charlotte, North Carolina native played one year at the University of South Carolina and three years at the University of Virginia.

These four players will join Briante Weber, Treveon Graham and Johnny O’Bryant in Orlando. Although those three players are already under contract and on the team’s roster, Rich Cho announced that they would play in summer league this year to continue their development. Also, expect rookies Malik Monk and Dwayne Bacon to participate.
