[Shams] The Charlotte Hornets and guard Reggie Jackson are likely to agree to a contract buyout, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Jackson will be among top point guards on the open market and will prioritize contending. Hornets set to play younger players down stretch.

Am I a moron or did we just send off Plum for a single 2028 second round pick
Tanking
So after all that talk about his potential value, we traded Plumlee for a 2028 Clippers second round pick
good job boys! who needs wins when you can have a collection of valuable second round picks.
So we made the trade to get Mason on a better team? Did Mitch owe him a favor or something?
Everyone knew he’d get a buyout if he wasn’t traded. Pretending we would get much at all was unrealistic
If you really thought we would get more than a single SRP for plumdawg you are really fooling yourself. Yes he’s had a good stretch recently but teams are not dumb, he’s a solid backup but he’s not a great starting center.
Hornets legend Reggie Jackson
Space for miles bridges….

People are upset at what they got in return, but literally anything was fine. The absence of Plumlee is better for development of this team. That’s not a knock on him, either. He had a great year by his standards. But, his presence on the team meant Mark and Nick couldn’t both play.
Such a confusing trade
