Cut by Charlotte The Hornets waived Bolden on Wednesday.

Impact Bolden was set to enter the second season of the two-year, two-way deal he signed in March, but the writing had been on the wall for Charlotte to cut him after the Warriors had listed the journeyman center on their 2024 Summer League roster last week. The 26-year-old will look to impress in the California Classic and Las Vegas Summer Leagues with the hope of earning a contract with the Warriors or another club.

Impact Bolden got the start for the Hornets' regular-season finale, and he took advantage of the opportunity by recording career highs in points and blocks. He was a DNP for most of the season, but he played in seven of Charlotte's last eight games. Bolden will be with the Hornets for the 2024-25 season after signing a two-year, two-way contract with the team in March of 2024.

Plays 30 minutes in first start Bolden logged six points (2-5 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 30 minutes during Friday's 131-98 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Bolden got the start Friday due to the absences of Grant Williams (ankle) and Nick Richards (foot). Bolden saw his heaviest usage of the season Friday, though he only managed to record six points on five field-goal attempts. He could see a similar amount of playing time in the Hornets' regular-season finale Sunday against the Cavaliers.

Sticks in rotation Friday Bolden amassed four points (2-2 FG) and three rebounds in 10 minutes during Friday's 124-115 win over the Magic.

Impact Bolden remained in the rotation Friday, taking to the floor for the third straight game. Prior to that, he had played on only four occasions all season. While it is clear the Hornets are going to hand minutes to just about anyone down the stretch, Bolden is not someone managers need to be considering outside of deep leagues.
