Hornets Weigh Coby White’s Future

Coby White is a cornerstone for the Charlotte Hornets, and team president Jeff Peterson wants him to stay — but the price tag could derail their rebuilding plans. With Bird Rights secured, Charlotte faces a tough choice: pay him $25M annually and risk crippling their roster, or explore a sign-and-trade to get assets in return. Ideally, a $20M deal would free up cap space to upgrade their frontcourt — maybe even with Miles Bridges or Grant Williams — turning White’s departure into a strategic asset rather than a loss.
