Hornets already looking to part with Stephenson

Sources: Hornets targeting Nets, Pacers to unload Lance Stephenson

The Charlotte Hornets are targeting the Indiana Pacers and Brooklyn Nets as destinations to unload guard Lance Stephenson, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

Stephenson becomes eligible to be traded on Monday, and Charlotte has rapidly lost hope that its brief partnership with Stephenson can stand the test of time.

Indiana hasn't ruled out the possibility of bringing back Stephenson, but appears unwilling to seriously engage the Hornets without the inclusion of a first-round pick in a potential deal, sources told Yahoo Sports.

So far, Charlotte has shown no inclination to package a future draft pick to move Stephenson, league executives told Yahoo Sports.

Well, that didn't take long. It would be pretty funny if he ended up back in Indiana.

Bad signing for the Hornets.

Interesting to see which desperate team will take on this cancerous headcase.

Sold.

Guessing he'll end up with the Pacers again. Hornets realized he wasn't worth it after all.

Dat win "analysis" tho.

I think Sir Lanceloss returning to Indiana would be good for all parties involved. but Charlotte would have to throw in a 2016 1st.

I always thought he was a great fit for the bulls before pau showing up. using lance at the two and moving butler at the 3 would've made a great defensive team...better than it already is

[Andrew]

I like his skillset, but I'm still wary of his attitude.

[NovU]

There is no way Jordan would do this. Unless first round pick is heavily protected.

Three words About. Damn. Time.
I hate Stephenson with the Hornets. He causes the ball to stick far too much in this Hornets offense. He needs to be traded to a team with little to no shot creators. I want to say New York or LAC. That'd be an easy way to get rid of him, guarantee it.

Bulls should do this if they are serious in being a championship contender.

[Andrew]

No way. Joel Anthony is an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season. Too risky.

They should trade Rose if they ever want to succeed. Joke or not?

Trade Rose for Westbrook.
