The Hornets can’t afford not the make the playoffs this year. The pick we gave up for Kai has its’ heaviest protection this year. The following years the protection continues to dwindle. In a perfect world we make the playoffs and convey the 19th or 20th pick to New York.

Carey may well become a 10/10 guy but what separates him from Richards and Jones? Someone had to go and it was him. Not to mention, freeing up his cap space allows for more room for Bridges.

 

I wanted to try him more at PF, which is the position that made him one of the top high school recruits in the country.

I get that and he very well could become a good contributor for Washington but someone had to go out of him and Richards and Washington probably preferred Carey.

Kai Jones is averaging 16.6 pts 11.5 rpg and 1 apg in the g league.

Nick Richards averaged 17 pts 10.3 rpg and 3 blks in the g league.

What Vern did seems to be about average and easily replaceable.

Did he have like 28 points in one game last year? I’m not pressed about him leaving, like this trade, but he seemed to have lots of potential

Don't know. I don't pay attention to the Swarm that much. Kai did have a 27pts 17reb game this year though.

Oh no, I mean on the hornets, not the swarm. Vern had a big game for us then fell off randomly.

 

Edit: googled it and it was a 21/6 game
