Hornets nombran a Charles Lee, asistente de Celtics, como nuevo entrenador

Los Hornets de Charlotte nombraron el jueves a Charles Lee como nuevo entrenador, con la esperanza de que le dé un vuelco a la tribulada franquicia de la NBA. Lee, de 39 años, se une a los Hornets después de su paso como el asistente principal de los Celtics de Boston y completará la postemporada con los Celtics antes de unirse a los Hornets de tiempo completo. Lee pasó cinco campañas bajo el mando de Mike Budenholzer antes de unirse a los Celtics el verano pasado.

Lee reemplaza a Steve Clifford, quien anunció antes del final de la campaña regular que dejaría a Charlotte tras dos temporadas en su segundo periodo con el equipo. Los Hornets terminaron con marca de 21-61 esta temporada para quedar empatado con los Trail Blazers de Portland con la tercera peor marca. “Los Hornets tienen una talentosa base joven y estoy entusiasmado por el futuro y lo que podemos construir”, indicó Lee.
