The Hornets and James Borrego signs multi-year deal to keep him under HC!

The Hornets and James Borrego signs multi-year deal to keep him under HC! Despite his 95-124 coaching record, in his first three seasons with the team, the franchise has ruled to keep him. This most likely comes after having much success with LaMelo Ball, Gordon Hayward, and the Hornets in general. As they made great efforts to try to make it to the postseason, however, with key injuries happening to their roster.

The team ultimately went 33-38, tenth seed, and lost to the Pacers in the Play-In Game. Borrego entered the final season of his four-year deal, but now, he is going to be for sometime now.

Brandon Miller (Wirst) Out For Remainder Of Season

According to the Charlotte Hornets, they will be without their second-leading scorer due to wrist surgery to repair a torn scapholunate ligament in his right wrist.

Brandon Miller had a phenomenal season, but it got cut short after suffering the injury on Wednesday against the Utah Jazz. Initially, it was listed as a wrist sprain. It has evolved into something more serious.

In 27 games this season, the 22-year-old balled out. He averaged 21.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in 34.2 minutes. Most noticeably, Miller notched career-highs in points per game and assists per game.

Suns Trade Josh Okogie For Nick Richards

With Jusuf Nurkic falling out of the rotation, one of Phoenix’s biggest needs was upgrading at the center position.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Charlotte Hornets have traded Nick Richards to the Phoenix Suns for Josh Okogie. The Suns will send three second-rounders, while the Hornets will send over one second-rounder.

Initially, both sides talked about a Richards, Nurkic deal. However, Charlotte wasn’t interested in Nurkic or his big contract. They ultimately agreed upon Okogie and Richards being the main pieces.

Per the reporting of Arizona Sports’ John Gambadoro, the Suns expect Richards to start for them once he gets “acclimated to the team.”

Phoenix now has a center room of Richards, Mason Plumlee, Oso Ighodoro, and Nurkic.

By the Suns completing this trade, they save $20 million on their tax bill.
