Before the 2019-20 season was suspended, the Charlotte Hornets were in 10th place in the Eastern Conference standings. In the first season of the post-Kemba Walker era, Charlotte had a record of 23-42 and was on its way to missing the playoffs yet again.
Walker only made the playoffs twice during his tenure with the Hornets. The All-Star point guard is now on the Boston Celtics after the Hornets and Celtics pulled off a sign-and-trade deal last summer. Charlotte acquired Terry Rozier from Boston.
Rozier has a $19.9 million contract this season and is set to make $18.
