The NBA's 2019-20 buyout market is beginning to take shape.
Veteran forward Marvin Williams and the Charlotte Hornets are finalizing a contract buyout, sources ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, and The Athletic's Shams Charania reports that he plans to sign with the Milwaukee Bucks.
The 33-year-old would join an East-leading team that could use some depth in the frontcourt.
Williams is one of the longest-tenured Hornets players but lost his starting job this season. He's averaging 6.7 points in 19.7 minutes per game. A versatile player who can play both forward spots, Williams has averaged 5.2 rebounds and over 36% 3-point shooting in 1,055 career contests.
