Here are the pick swaps the Hornets received in the Timberwolves deal for LaMelo Ball:

2028: Hornets get more favorable of CLT/MIN
2029: Hornets already owned the least favorable of the UTA/CLE/MIN picks straight up. I think the Hornets will now be entitled to swap their own pick with the second-most favorable of the bunch.
2030: Hornets get the opportunity to swap with the least favorable of SAS/DAL/MIN unless the MIN pick ends up first overall.

So essentially one unprotected swap in 2028, and two that are very unlikely to result in much.

Franchise gonna have to work hard to earn the fans trust/ support back.

[Hornets Lead @HornetsLead]

Shocked that Schnall and Plotkin gave Peterson the green light on this. All of the momentum that Charlotte had, just to trade its biggest star.

Going to be more empty seats at the Spectrum Center, which doesn’t exactly help cover all of those new renovations 😅

[Dylan Jackson @djdotmp4]

This is a slap in the face man. Unbelievable. Way to undo literally all of the good will you've built up with this fan base.

You're telling me you got a SINGLE first-round pick for the guy who got All-NBA votes this year.

Sure.

Im so disappointed in the Hornets man

[The Icon Formerly Known as Jayson @ThePopeJayson]

Ownership needs to explain this decision today. Im not sold on this trade.

With the 14th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, the Charlotte Hornets select... HANNES STEINBACH 👏

[The Icon Formerly Known as Jayson @ThePopeJayson]

Hornets need to offer everything.

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

Anthony Edwards has been frustrated since Karl-Anthony Towns was traded, per @WindhorstESPN

@BannedMacMahon: “The NBA vultures are swirling around Ant in anticipation of him potentially becoming the next superstar who's available in the trade market” 👀

Imo, the man has great taste

[Jessica Tarlov @JessicaTarlov]

I can’t keep up - is the issue that he’s gay or he sleeps with too many attractive women?

[The Icon Formerly Known as Jayson @ThePopeJayson]

Wrapping up our call and Grandma said keep looking at the classifieds for jobs. Smh. I love that woman.

[Clemente Almanza @CAlmanza1007]

Think Cason Wallace has cemented himself as a full-time starter next season. Most likely replacing Lu Dort's spot

You haven’t seen a 7-Eleven until you seen a 7-Eleven in Japan. Completely different world.
