The Charlotte Hornets have waived guard Duane Washington Jr. after he participated in two preseason games, scoring a total of 12 points. This decision follows a three-team trade with the New York Knicks, which included cash considerations to offset Washington's departure.
Washington, who has played 79 games in the NBA, averaged 9.1 points, 1.9 assists, and 1.5 rebounds during his career. His experience may lead him to a G League opportunity with the Greensboro Swarm.
