The Charlotte Hornets are waiving guard Aaron Harrison today, league sources told @TheVertical.

Wow, didn't expect that. Roster move coming?

He wasn't getting better

Perhaps, but looking at his stats he seemed to be performing at the highest level for the Swarm this season and he's still only 22.

If I understand the new cba correctly there should be some strife on young teams where everyone is competing to be the designated player, right?

Say the thunder a few years ago.. Wouldn't Durant and Westbrook have been competing to become the designated player? And if Westbrook feels they are gonna give it to Durant what is to stop him from forcing a trade to Orlando where they'd be thrilled to offer him the $ that OKC can't?

In this regard it might be good for the league in that it breaks up stars and sorta discourages multiple tank years.

Like Philly has an issue on their hands already between Simmons and embiid if embiid stays healthy.

A team like new York would have strife too though. Say Melo or rose was a little younger and less injury prone and coming up as a free agent and we're eligible for the designated tag. They'd want the money. But obviously the Knicks would want to save the money for Porzingis. This is gonna cause a ruckus. Particularly if the young guy is still in the Ingram unproven stage.

I like all the chaos and trade rumors this will cause.

Teams like the Spurs who focus on character are going to rule the new CBA

Yeah, just really didn't think they'd pull the trigger on it.

That lending tree logo is much better than the one that was on the summer league jerseys, I approve for that reason alone. Hopefully the other jerseys use the same logo.

Do we still have a marketing agreement in place with Papa John's or did it get switched to another pizza place after their recent fiasco?

Good question. I hope they have dropped papa.

I wish it was a longer statement, though. I know it's a long shot but I hope MJ becomes more vocal when it comes to sociopolitical issues.

That isn't MJ's style. He puts in work behind the scenes, he's a doer not a talker.

Great uniform, and should remain one of our primary ones forever.

Great look on the court and white classic jerseys. Now, can we bring back some of the players in their prime like LJ and Zo too?

Looks great to me, that was always my favorite of the old court designs. Retro nights this season are gonna be awesome with the unis/court.
