Veteran center Mason Plumlee is set to bring his skills to the Charlotte Hornets after agreeing to a one-year, $3.6 million deal. The 35-year-old big man adds valuable frontcourt depth to the Hornets roster following the departure of Mark Williams to the Suns in a recent trade. Plumlee's experience and rebounding prowess will be key assets for a team looking to strengthen their interior presence.
Plumlee's journey in the NBA has seen him play for several teams in recent years, including a brief stint with the Suns where he started 21 games and provided steady production. Despite being replaced by Nick Richards midseason, Plumlee's contributions were notable, averaging 4.6 points and 8 rebounds per game as a starter. As he enters his 13th season in the league, Plumlee's experience and versatility will undoubtedly be valuable assets for the Hornets as they aim to compete in a competitive Eastern Conference.
