Overloaded with bad contracts and untradable assets, the Charlotte Hornets have made All-Star point guard Kemba Walker available in trade discussions, league sources told ESPN.

Charlotte has been encouraging teams to make offers and appears eager to discuss attaching Walker to a larger trade in which another team would take on one of the Hornets' several far-less-desirable contracts, sources said.

The Hornets had already made available Nicolas Batum (four years, $100 million), Dwight Howard (two years, $47 million), Marvin Williams (three years, $42 million) and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (three years, $39 million), league sources said, but those players and their contracts are largely unattractive in the marketplace.

All damn day. Same age as derozan, extends the window for us to be elite with the young kids coming up. Makes 12 mllion this year and next, so about 21 million less in the cap to go add more talent.

Probably makes us a little worse this year but maybe better by next year or the year after.

This is probably the dumbest thing i've seen on twitter today. Can we please stop overrating IT? replace IT with Irving and i still wouldn't do that trade if i'm the Pels lol. And Irving is SIGNIFICANTLY better than IT.

Couple posts higher golden wants Davis for Lowry lol. He's the best big man in the world. Now, that deal for BOOGIE? We're getting much closer.

Why is a retired NFL receiver getting paid to make NBA trade proposals. And why Shannon Sharpe starting to look more like KRS One with every passing year
