After the Pelicans waived Antonio Reeves on July 3rd, it was only a matter of time before some team snatched up the former Kentucky guard who was coming off a strong rookie season. And while it took longer than some of us expected, Reeves officially has a new home.
ESPN's Shams Charania has reported that the Charlotte Hornets are signing guard Antonio Reeves to a two-way NBA deal.
This news is exciting and disappointing at the same time. It's exciting, as many other Pelicans fans, myself included, are thrilled to see Reeves get a second chance on an NBA team after being waived by New Orleans earlier this month.
