Hornets' Mark Williams: Healthy entering offseason
Rotowire
During his exit interview Monday, Williams said he's feeling good and healthy entering the offseason, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.
Williams missed Sunday's regular-season finale to manage a left foot injury, though it was likely a precaution. His back was a much larger issue this season, though he told reporters that he noticed a positive difference in January when the Hornets eased his restrictions. He ended the regular season with 44 appearances, posting averages of 15.3 points on 60.4 percent shooting, 10.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.2 blocks in 26.6 minutes per game.
Gibson closed with four points (2-3 FG), six rebounds and two assists in 11 minutes during Sunday's 93-86 loss to the Celtics.
Gibson finishes his 16th and perhaps last season in the NBA with a muted performance in only 11 minutes on the floor for Charlotte. The veteran big man played in 37 games during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 2.9 points and 3.2 rebounds across 11.1 minutes per contest.
