Socrates once said, “The secret of change is to focus all of your energy. Not on fighting the old, but building on the new.”
The Charlotte Hornets front office has focused their energy on acquiring new talent this off-season by retooling the roster. In their most recent off-season move, however, they are “building on the new” by signing a player from the past.
Charlotte made a three team trade with the Chicago Bulls and Orlando Magic, acquiring former Hornets’ big man Bismack Biyombo and two second round picks (2019, 2020) from the Magic in exchange for Timofey Mozgov (acquired from BKN for Dwight Howard).
