Hornets continue to build, bringing back veteran guard
The Charlotte Hornets appear to be putting together the right pieces around LaMelo Ball to make a playoff push in 2025-26. On Tuesday, they retained the services of a veteran guard to put around Ball in Tre Mann.
The former Florida Gators star signed a three-year, $24 million deal with the Hornets, according to ESPN NBA Iinsider Shams Charania.
The 24-year-old Mann was drafted in the first round by the Oklahoma City Thunder in 2021 after becoming a five-star recruit in high school. He was a first team all-SEC selection with the Gators, where he spent two seasons.
