Hornets' Drew Peterson: Gets two-way deal
Rotowire
Peterson agreed to a two-way contract with the Hornets on Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Peterson will join the Hornets after spending most of the past two seasons as a two-way player for Boston. The 25-year-old forward appeared in 25 games for the Celtics in 2024-25, averaging 2.2 points and 1.6 rebounds across 7.4 minutes per contest.
