Hornets newly acquired center Robin Lopez undergoes knee surgery, team confirms Mason Jr signing and Hornets number 1 overall pick Anthony Davis continues to make the most of his olympic experience.

The Hornets roster is starting to fill out following the teams latest acquisition of free agent shooting guard, Roger Mason Jr. It was expected that New Orleans would eventually pay up for a fourth guard... so grabbing a 38% three point shooter on a one-year contract worth the veteran minimum seems like money well spent.

Weekly wrap of all things Hornets

The Hornets rookie looked... sharp, in a questionable U.S olympian outfit prepared by Ralph Lauren for the opening ceremony of the London olympics, Austin Rivers has surgery, Hornets acquire Robin Lopez and Hakim Warrick from Phoenix, full season schedule released, Hornets have 7 nationally broadcasted games.

Why Hornets fans should expect a playoff team

From the outside looking in, it doesn't appear that New Orleans have assembled the kind of roster that's capable of securing a spot in the playoffs.
