Great highlights on KJ…he was scorching from 3, including a last second twisting triple under heavy pressure.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Top of the Eastern conference. If we win the GLeague I'm celebrating it like an NBA title.

The first franchise trophy!

Does seem encouraging from a franchise perspective. It has always seemed requisite to me that a small market team takes advantage of their developmental affiliate.

Cool trade, he had some big moments for that team and I just loved the way he played. Good defensive awareness, moved the ball, not scared to shoot. Glad we're keeping him around.

tiddy 5-12 for 13pts, 12reb
reeves 24pts

without having watched any of his Greensboro film, I'm curious if Tidjane could function in the interior as an energy big and nothing else. Give him a few games with no 3-point shooting, and see if he can make something happen against the D-League's garbage big men.

I'm fully aware he's nowhere near good enough inside to play that role on an NBA team, but I'm really grasping at straws hoping he finds a way to be useful, even at the D-League level.
