Wendell Moore has signed a two-way contract with the Charlotte Hornets for the remainder of the current season, according to Hoops Rumors.

This new deal will allow Moore to continue with the team, but it is only guaranteed for the rest of this year.

In contrast, Charlotte’s other two-way players, KJ Simpson and Damion Baugh, have secured two-year contracts that will keep them with the Hornets through next season.

In addition, Moore will not be eligible for a qualifying offer when the offseason arrives.

Since the Hornets decided to decline his 2025/26 rookie scale team option, Moore will automatically become an unrestricted free agent once the season concludes, allowing him to explore opportunities with other teams.

This marks a significant shift for Moore, who had initially hoped to secure a more long-term role with the organization.
