Hornets, Kidd-Gilchrist Agree to Four-Year Extension
The Charlotte Hornets have made sure Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is a Charlotte Hornet long-term.
The Hornets have agreed to a four-year, $52 million contract, sources confirmed Monday. The deal will keep him off the free-agent market, similar to when the Hornets signed point guard Kemba Walker to a four-year, $48 million contract a year ago.
Kidd-Gilchrist is considered the Hornets’ defensive stopper. Coach Steve Clifford has called him one of the best individual and team defenders in the league.
