The Charlotte Hornets hit this free agency with a blocked-cap situation. The 2018-19 NBA free agent market is full of big names, with really good players are moving around the league. The Hornets will not be able to be so active because of their situation and they will likely be focused on Kemba Walker‘s case.
Considering that Marvin Williams and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will both likely pick up their team options, and that Tony Parker‘s contract is not guaranteed, the payroll for next year counts $97.564.284 millions guaranteed. That is a huge amount of money considering that Charlotte did not reach playoffs.
