The Charlotte Hornets announced a pair of moves related to their two way contracts on Thursday. First, the team announced that they waived guard Theo Maledon. A couple hours later, the team announced that they had signed center Nathan Mensah to the vacant two-way contract.
In the grand scheme of things, this move isn’t going to move the needle. Theo Maledon hadn’t been playing, and Mensah is only going to play in case of emergency. Though given the injury status of PJ Washington and Mark Williams, we may be living the emergency.
Maledon had a really, really rough start to the season as a reserve guard and eventually lost his job to 57 year old Ish Smith.
