Charlotte Hornets add former SEC guard on non-guaranteed deal
According to Rod Boone, the Charlotte Hornets have signed Kobe Stewart to an exhibit 10 contract.
The Charlotte Hornets have bolstered their roster by signing former Presbyterian guard Kobe Stewart to a non-guaranteed exhibit 10 contract. The deal allows the team to retain Stewart's G-League rights if he is unable to make the Hornets' roster, which is the most likely outcome. Stewart has spent time with the Milwaukee Bucks during the summer league and played a total of 34 G-League games between the Wisconsin Herd and Memphis Hustle last season.
In those games, he averaged nine points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 0.8 steals per 21.2 minutes of play. Stewart's senior season with Presbyterian saw him average 15.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.3 blocks.
