On Thursday, the Charlotte Hornets made a trade at the deadline, moving Gordon Hayward and his expiring contract to the Oklahoma City Thunder. After moving Rozier to Miami late last month, and now Hayward as well, Charlotte has clearly picked a direction, and is fully committing to the rebuild by capitalizing on their talented veterans. They also moved PJ Washington in another deal. But the one I want to focus on specifically is the Hayward one. In return for the 33-year-old wing, The Hornets got three players in return, Tre Mann, Davis Bertans, and Vasilije Micic. A lot of fans were excited to see Mann get more opportunity and a larger role with Charlotte, and rightfully so. But the real gem of the deal may have been Micic. In his debut for the Hornets, he had 18 points, 9 assists, and shot over 60% from the field. He was phenomenal, and fans around the league couldn’t believe this guy wasn’t getting more play time in OKC. He’s a former Euroleague MVP, and finally decided to come over to the States this summer, signing a three year, $24 million deal. I made a video in the offseason, calling him the European Harden, and you can see it in his highlights from overseas. His stepback three is lethal, and he’s a great playmaker as well. That was on display in the team’s upset win against the Grizzlies on Friday. He was setting up his teammates with easy looks, which led to Miles Bridges shooting 11 of 13, and Brandon Miller shooting 7 of 9. He came off the bench in his debut, but I’d assume that won’t remain the case. It will be interesting to see his fit alongside LaMelo Ball when he returns from injury, but Micic could be a gamechanger for this team. The Charlotte Hornets struck gold with Vasilije Micic.
Think about subbing, I’m on the road to 13k!!!

Can we get another pistons video next time they win they’re lookin nice post deadline
Bigherm24 good commentary, good analysis. I remember the beginning of the year when they sign this guy in Oklahoma. And he got all these accolades coming out of Europe. But they didn’t give him a chance to play. I thought they were gonna allow him to play, maybe backing up Josh Giddy, or getting some men coming off the bench before the rookies they have. They ignored him and sign me to a three year deal. I mean Oklahoma is pretty smart with their draft capital. But I don’t understand why they Coach didn’t get his guy more time. His first game in Charlotte man he look like a veteran among veterans. Smooth running. I mean a young guard Mann also needed some playing time for Oklahoma. He did look pretty good. But Micic looks like a steel in my opinion. Now the Hornets have some guard play. If LaMelo Ball doesn’t come back anytime soon they can lease have better guard play. Am I throwing the guy who they had in there under the bus but they were lacking in my opinion. good job Hornets front office
It's not "Mitchic" it's more like "Mitsic"
