Hornets Keeping Lance Stephenson 'For Now'

[RealGM Wiretap]

With a dearth of quality trade offers, the Charlotte Hornets are keeping Lance Stephenson "for now," according to sources.

Stephenson has had a problematic start to his tenure with the Hornets after signing a three-year, $27 million contract.

The Miami Heat and Brooklyn Nets are among seven clubs that showed interest in Stephenson.

Get a room, Charlotte & Lance. We don't need to see this gooey romantic PDA.

Keeping Lance.... until he hopefully strings together a couple of solid games and raises his value before the trade deadline.
