Hornets 15th roster spot

Currently the Hornets have 14 players under contract who are locks to make the regular season opening night roster, which leaves one open spot for a big man. The team still has the use of the "Room" exception worth $2.73 million to sign a free agent, however they will likely only offer a minimum deal since the remaining available talent in the market is really low.

The Hornets need a big man since Noah Vonleh could miss some of the regular season as he recovers from sports hernia surgery. Vonleh's absence leaves the Hornets with just four healthy big men -- Al Jefferson, Bismack Biyombo, Cody Zeller and Marvin Williams.
