Josh Hart – New Orleans Pelicans – Shooting Guard – 26
Another wing that makes a lot of sense for Charlotte is New Orleans’ Josh Hart. It was rumored that Hart and Tomas Satoransky would be coming to Charlotte in a deal that sent Lonzo Ball to Chicago and Devonte’ Graham to New Orleans.
Hart is still on the market, albeit as a restricted free agent. Hart is entering his fifth year in the league and has made a name for himself as a solid shooter and all-around player. Last season with the Pelicans, Hart averaged 9.2 points and 8.0 rebounds per game. He would bring that desired veteran role player trait the Hornets so desperately need on the wing.
The deal to bring Hart in likely wouldn’t be as rich as the Oubre deal, four years, $32 million could make a lot of sense for him. There’s still plenty of players on the market and the Hornets are unlikely to be done finalizing their roster as they gear up for the new season, stay calm and be patient.
