Jo Ingles would love playing with Mark. The pick n roll would be fantastic

I'm good upping Bridges trade value and dumping him and LaMelo and build around the 2nd pick and Mark Williams, keep PJ around unless someone overpays in a trade.

I'm curious what Williams trade value is? Could the Blazers pry him away?

Hell no to trading Mark.

Since he became starter we improved from bottom 20 to top 5 defense, not only because he is great rim protector yet(because he is not), its his legs, mobility and ability to switch on guards that made Hornets great defensive team. Since trade deadline Hornets were around 0.500 even with Lamelo playing only 4 games. I have not seen guy with his size(9.9 standing reach?!) who is so fluid with his movements. I think his last game of the season showed us who can he be - great defensive center with ability to hit midrange shots, maybe even 3 pointers, jump hooks, floaters.

He was much better at the begining of the season than he was during summer league, he was much better in december than he was in october, he was much better since becoming a starter than he was in december and finally he was so much better in the last game of the season than he was in february. And on top of that, based on social media he is gym rat and since season ended he is at gym. He is going to be star.

I'm as excited to see him blossom as I am for Lamelo. If Miller or Scoot pan out like a 2 pick should, we are in for a Hella of a decade
Your Charlotte Hornets! We’ll eventually get something right;right?

Mark Williams has undergone successful surgery to address a torn ligament in his right thumb.

the same one they allowed him thru in meaningless games at the end of the season. so dumb.

Couldn't this surgery have been done a month ago or more?

If this man doesn't start from the very first game Clifford should be fired on the spot.
