Summary
Dorian Finney-Smith, once a Florida Gators rebounding machine and now a veteran NBA forward, is bouncing back to the Hornets after a rocky stint with the Rockets — his fifth team in the league. Signed to a lucrative four-year, $52M deal last season, his production and minutes plummeted after offseason ankle surgery, dropping from 29 to 16 minutes per game and just one start. Rising from undrafted status with the Mavericks, he’s also worn Nets and Clippers jerseys before Houston. Now, with a fresh start in Charlotte, Finney-Smith aims to reclaim his form and prove his value as a seasoned role player.
