Rick Bonnell: I’m told that claiming Mack does not mean the Hornets believe Tony Parker’s back strain is serious, but we’ll see when Parker returns. It does probably make sense, with Hornets in a playoff chase, to have another veteran point guard.
Rod Boone: Tony Parker remains day to day, Borrego said, and #Hornets may get him back soon. Said he’s progressing. They need him healthy so with only 2 games left before All-Star break after tonight, there’s a possibility #Hornets could hold him out til after break to ensure he’s healthy.
Rick Bonnell: Kupchak says Tony Parker has been “much more valuable than we ever anticipated.” He also indicates Jeremy Lamb’s improvement has made him the team’s second option (I assume he meant as a scorer).
Jovan Buha: Tony Parker (back strain) is out for the rest of the game, per Hornets.
