July 24th , according to HoopsHype reporter Michael Scotto, the Charlotte Hornets decided to cut 24-year-old young guard Damion Bo to make room for a two-way contract for Antonio Reeves who is about to be signed.

Damion Bo played for the Hornets as a rookie in the 2024-25 season and is one of the young players the team focuses on developing this season. In the 15 games he played, although his playing time was limited, he still contributed 7.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.0 steals. Although his performance was not amazing, he showed some potential in organization and defense.

It is worth mentioning that ESPN's well-known reporter Shams Charania was the first to disclose the news that the Hornets would sign Reeves. According to his report: " The Charlotte Hornets will sign guard Antonio Reeves to a two-way NBA contract, sources revealed. "

Antonio Reeves was selected by the New Orleans Pelicans in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft. As a rookie, he played 44 games for the Pelicans last season , averaging 6.9 points per game and shooting 40% from three-point range . The guard has won the attention of many teams with his accurate outside shooting and stable scoring ability. This time, he joined the Hornets and is expected to inject more firepower into the team.

For the Hornets, this personnel adjustment reflects the direction of their player development strategy. The management is obviously more inclined to choose guards with mature scoring ability to strengthen the rotation lineup and improve the efficiency of outside shooting. Although Damion Bo bid farewell to the NBA stage in the short term , with his potential in organization and youth advantage, he still has a chance to return to the league in the future.
