Keyontae Johnson, a former second-round pick of the Oklahoma City Thunder, has signed a contract with the Charlotte Hornets, according to his agency. Johnson's previous season included limited action in the NBA with an average of 1.2 points and 1.1 rebounds over nine games, while he excelled in the G League, averaging nearly 20 points per game. His journey has been marked by resilience, having overcome significant health challenges, including a heart condition that sidelined him during his college career. Although the specifics of his contract with the Hornets remain unclear, it is likely a two-way deal, allowing him to continue developing in the G League. Johnson's signing brings the Hornets closer to finalizing their roster as they look to integrate him ahead of the upcoming season.
