The Charlotte Hornets have recently acquired shooting guard, Courtney Lee, from the Memphis Grizzlies in a three team trade that sent P.J. Hairston and two second round picks to the Grizzlies and Brian Roberts to the Miami Heat. Lee will have some big shoes to fill for the rest of the season.
The Hornets made this trade because of their need for a wing player since star small forward, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, will miss the remainder of the season due to a torn right labrum in his shoulder.
