The Hornets saved Bucks from inevitable headache this summer
The Bucks should be thanking Charlotte right about now.

At the time, it probably felt like missing out on a solid backup guard option. The Bucks were moving on from Damian Lillard and needed all the help they could get in the backcourt. Tre Mann was available. And Jon Horst and company missed out on his services.
Turns out, the Hornets did Milwaukee a massive favor.
