Timing is everything: When should Jeff Peterson try to land a big fish for Hornets?

The Charlotte Hornets aren't a franchise that is considered a free agent destination. Improving the team mainly comes through the draft and trades, something they did well this offseason.

Charlotte doesn't have a track record of making big swings in the trade market, however. In fact, they hardly make any moves to try to grab either a superstar or even a star player.

Jeff Peterson and his predecessor Mitch Kupchak have mainly dealt with a banged-up roster, which has led to picking high in the lottery in recent years. Now that they have some intriguing young building blocks, the question becomes, when will he take a big swing?
