I didn't watch it, but the comments on the Hornets subreddit seem to indicate that CLee sounded like he was leaving the Hornets.

I think of all our free agents he was always the least likely to return. The whole point was we traded nothing but 2nd rd picks to get a guy to fill in once mkg was out for the year.

He's already 30 and he'd be a bit player in our rotation. On top of that he's a legit starter on a lot of teams. Good ones or bad ones

Really interesting article on Courtney Lee and his upcoming free agency.

"Fresh off of a four-year, $21.3 million contract that ended with the Charlotte Hornets, the versatile shooting guard could garner somewhere around to $11-14 million per year on the open market, according to NBA sources."

He says there are three things he’s looking for when it comes to free agency:

“I’ll be waiting to see what Charlotte will do,” Lee said.
“Whether I can come in and help a team win, and this is a big one,” Lee said. “Would I love to be a starter? Yes. Will I compete and position myself to try and be a starter? Of course. But the most important thing is who finishes the game. Now I’ve started the majority of my career [Ed. Note: He’s started 360 of 600 career games]. But I also have experience coming off the bench. I’ll do whatever it takes to help the team win.”
“Being financial stable because you want to make the best decision for yourself and your family. You want to be smart with your money. You want it to last a lifetime so you can be able take care of your kids and their kids, hopefully. But I’m going to sit back and let my agent [Dan Fegan] do the work. Hopefully he stresses himself out about getting me a good deal so I don’t have to,” Lee said, with a laugh.

so he wants to start and or finish the games and could get 11+ million per year.

yep he is gone, only way he is back is if Nic leaves.

I would assume the same applies to Marvin except with a larger pay.

“In an ideal world, I’d like to stay,” Lee told Basketball Insiders. “With Charlotte, there’s mutual interest. They’ve already expressed that they want me to come back, but in the same sense, there’s four or five other [Hornets] free agents. So you have to see how the money plays out."

I can't imagine we'd just say that if there wasn't some plan to bring all these guys back. Could mean he's the Batum backup plan, but I wonder if the team would make some moves in order to keep him. If he's receptive to the role, he'd be a hell of a third wing behind Batum and MKG. But that would likely mean dumping assets to move Lamb, who is 7 years younger and will cost probably half as much.

I like Lee, I'm just not sure he fits here long-term.

He's expecting a huge payday for everyone that will blow fans' minds because fans don't understand the amount of money flowing in.
