While the short-term return looks modest, the Hornets are betting big on long-term asset accumulation, mirroring the Thunder’s blueprint. Reid immediately fills a need, but the real story is the franchise’s strategic pivot toward stability over star power. Critics slam the Timberwolves for giving up so much, while Hornets fans brace for pain — but this move could pay off if Ball’s future doesn’t live up to the hype.
