Brian Roberts is technically a new signing, but it’s hard to view him that way since he spent most of last season with the Charlotte Hornets. Part of the three-team trade that brought Courtney Lee to Charlotte, Roberts was quickly dealt again to the Portland Trailblazers, where he was part of a roster that won their opening playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Becoming a free agent this summer, the Hornets decided to bring Roberts back on a one-year deal.
Last season, Roberts featured in 30 games with the Hornets, averaging 4.8 points, and 1.3 assists in 11.
