Charlotte Hornets acquire Courtney Lee in the three-team trade

The Charlotte Hornets have decided to go the aggressive route as we near the trade deadline for the 2015-2016 NBA Season.

On deadline day, the Hornets were involved in a three team trade that included the Miami Heat and the Memphis Grizzlies. The Hornets dealt guard P.J. Hairston to Memphis and guard Brian Roberts to Miami. Memphis also received two second round draft picks each from the Hornets and the Heat.

The Heat also dealt forward Chris Anderson to Memphis. The Hornets, who currently hold the eighth seed in the east, are very excited to receive an experienced wingman like Courtney Lee.
