Courtney Lee wasn’t expecting to play for the Charlotte Hornets this season – or any NBA franchise other than the Memphis Grizzlies for that matter.

But Lee said one day after members of the Grizzlies front office reassured him and his agent that they weren’t trying to deal him, he learned that he was headed to Charlotte as part of a three-way trade that also included the Miami Heat.

”It kind of threw me off,” Lee said Thursday after Hornets practice.
