The NBA does not have a date set for the 2020 offseason, but the league is coming up with a plan. However, the Charlotte Hornets will be set to pay someone a lot of money this offseason.
Heading into the 2020-2021 season, Nicolas Batum will be the highest-paid player on the team. However, Batum will only make this money if he accepts his $27 million dollar player-option.
When it comes to making a decision like this, it’s usually a no-brainer. Fans know that next season will likely be the last season Batum plays for Charlotte, and he could also never see a minute of court time next season.
