[Keith Smith] The Hornets have bewilderingly been sitting on an open standard roster spot and open Two-Way spot for a while. Now, they are down to seven healthy players.

They also lost Dennis Smith due to illness in this game.

It's beyond time to sign a couple of guys. This is just dumb now.

There is no reason at all for a bad team that is a mile from the luxury tax to sit on open roster spots late in the season. Just being cheap.

They should be bringing players in on 10 days and filling the Two-Way. Churn the bottom of the roster and see if you can find a diamond.

This was the Hornets bench at the end of last night's game. Despite being shorthanded, young prospects James Bouknight and Theo Maledon did not travel with the team, instead staying in the G-league despite being full-contract players.

I have never seen this level of negligence and apathy from a team, even at this point in a lost season. Is MJ saving every penny in anticipation of his upcoming sale?
