How NBA can fix massive NCAA eligibility crisis

On Christmas Eve, Baylor sent shockwaves around NCAA by signing 7-foot center James Nnaji, the No. 31 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft who never actually signed an NBA contract.

The Atlanta Hawks were in Charlotte on Wednesday evening to face the Hornets.

Twitter Gold: Donnybrook In Charlotte!

The Detroit Pistons visited the Charlotte Hornets on Monday night and to say things got a bit heated is an understatement.

Rockets stung by Hornets 109-99

All of us have a player we like more than others on the team. All of us probably have a player we don’t like as much on the team. Tonight’s game pretty much united both, as with the exception of the deep bench, and maybe, Durant’s night, everyone on the Rockets was fairly dismal. It […]

Hornets acquire Xavier Tillman at the trade deadline buzzer

We had thought the dust had settled on the trade deadline when it was reported that the Charlotte Hornets had acquired Malaki Branham about 20 minutes before the deadline. But not so fast. Apparently Jeff Peterson snuck one more deal through that we didn’t find out about until an hour after the deadline had past.

Xavier Tillman’s time in Boston is over

The Celtics have traded Xavier Tillman to the Charlotte Hornets, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported on Thursday afternoon.

He only appeared […]

Another Brotherhood Trade (And One More)!

We sort of wondered why the Charlotte Hornets traded for two point guards at the last minute, but now we know: they’re sending former Duke guard Tyus Jones to Dallas. This will give them first of all a very solid point guard for the moment and a really good backup when fellow former Blue Devil […]

Charlotte Hornets trade deadline extravaganza

Today is the NBA trade deadline. The Charlotte Hornets have already made a couple of moves, and I’d be surprised if they’re done. The rest of the league has gone coocoo and has sent players in every which way. It’s like playing 2K MyGM and watching the CPU controlled teams go nuts at random. You’ve […] The post Charlotte Hornets trade deadline extravaganza first appeared on At The Hive .

Tyus Jones Traded To Charlotte

Former Duke point guard Tyus Jones has been traded from the Orlando Magic to the Charlotte Hornets, where he’ll join fellow former Blue Devil Kon Knueppel. He’ll most likely back up LaMelo Ball. Given Ball’s injury history, having a solid backup is a really good idea. Charlotte got some redundancy there, also trading for former […]

Hornets acquiring Tyus Jones and picks for basically nothing

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Charlotte Hornets are acquiring Tyus Jones from the Orlando Magic for nothing but cash considerations. But wait, there’s more.
