The Charlotte Hornets squared off with the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday night for the first time since the failed Mark Williams trade. The Lakers are in fifth place in the Western Conference while the Hornets are in 14th in the East. The Lakers were big favorites at home, but the Hornets ended up overcoming a double digit deficit in the second half to earn the 100-97 victory.
Mark Williams was supposed to be playing for the Lakers in this game, but because of a failed physical, the trade was rescinded. His agent, Jeff Schwartz, released a statement on the matter on Thursday.
“The overwhelming sentiment, after conferring with multiple, nationally recognized doctors, is that the Los Angeles Lakers should not have failed Mark Williams on his physical,” Schwartz said. “Mark was ready and able to play for them and should have been given that opportunity.”
