Report: Nets’ Jeff Peterson expected to be candidate for Hornets executive position

The Brooklyn Nets are trying to turn their season around as they look to get back into the Eastern Conference playoff race before it’s too late. They made some solid moves at the NBA trade deadline to improve their team and one of the members of the front office that made those decisions could be up for a promotion.

Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported on Monday that Mitch Kupchak, President of Basketball Operations for the Charlotte Hornets, is stepping down from that role to become an organizational advisor. Wojnarowski noted that one of the people expected to be a candidate for that position is Nets assistant general manager Jeff Peterson.
