Reggie Jackson Traded to Charlotte Hornets
In a notable transaction, the Nuggets traded veteran guard Reggie Jackson to the Charlotte Hornets. Along with Jackson, Denver included three unprotected second-round draft picks in the deal.

Jackson, who played all 82 games in the previous season and averaged 10.2 points and 3.8 assists per game, was waived by the Hornets less than a month after the trade .
Organizational Changes and Future Outlook
