How does Jeremy Lamb's trade to the Hornets affect his future?

Jeremy Lamb has had an up-and-down NBA career so far, but reuniting with Kemba Walker on the Charlotte Hornets could be exactly what he needs.

A quick recap of Lamb's NBA career so far: through three professional seasons, all with the Oklahoma City Thunder, he hasn't really carved out a definite role, although he's been steadily improving. Last season, his playing time took a big hit, although he did start an NBA game for the first time in his career (and he went on to start seven more). He's become known as a three-point shooter (although he's just above-average at that skill and not great yet), doesn't have a great defensive reputation despite the steps he's made in improving his game, and has become a very solid rebounder for a wing player.
