The Charlotte Hornets roster can still use some upgrades. At least everyone knows that LaMelo Ball will be present and the featured piece of the franchise manning the point guard position. Hell, you can probably speculate how the rest of the starting lineup will look, but who will be backing up their franchise player? There have been two names that have been floating around for the organization all summer long. Isaiah Thomas is the likely favorite to return, but the Hornets legend Kemba Walker has been linked back to Buzz City as well. The latest name to join that race is Elfrid Payton, per Marc Stein.
