Bismack Biyombo wanted to see through the rebuild with the Charlotte Hornets. He’ll get that chance.
Veteran center Biyombo will sign a one-year deal with the Hornets, according to two NBA sources. He will provide needed depth at the position, and increased his role as a mentor to some of the team’s young players last season.
Biyombo started his NBA career with the then-Bobcats in 2011, then moved on to the Toronto Raptors and Orlando Magic. He returned to Charlotte in the summer of 2018 in a trade that was one of general manager Mitch Kupchak’s first transactions with the team.
