The Hawks used up their two open spots on a 21-man training camp roster by bringing in forward Cameron Corhen and guard Kobe Johnson, the team announced.
Atlanta didn’t disclose the terms, but Brad Rowland of Locked on Hawks said both deals are non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contracts. That points both players toward the College Park Skyhawks, where they’d be positioned to earn bonuses of up to $91K apiece if they’re waived and then spend at least 60 days with the G League club.
Johnson already knows that path well. He’s a returning rights player for College Park after spending last season with the Hawks’ G League affiliate.
Corhen, who went undrafted out of Pittsburgh this June, could join him there as an affiliate player. Both also played for Atlanta’s Summer League team in July.
Elsewhere, the Heat are adding free agent guard Lester Quinones on an Exhibit 10 deal, according to agent Scott Nichols, who told Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald. Quinones, 25, has 54 NBA regular season appearances on his résumé across stops with Golden State, Philadelphia, and New Orleans from 2023-25.
He was with the Osceola Magic in the G League last season, and his returning rights were traded over the weekend to the Sioux Falls Skyforce, Miami’s affiliate. Jackson added that Quinones is expected to be in the mix for a two-way contract with the Heat.
Charlotte also made a move after waiving Rob Dillingham earlier in the day, signing forward Wyatt Fricks to fill the opening, the team announced via Twitter. Back in June, reporting indicated the Hornets had an Exhibit 10 agreement lined up with Fricks, who went undrafted out of Marshall. He was the only college player in 2025/26 to post at least 50 dunks and 50 made three-pointers.
The Pistons, meanwhile, officially waived guard Bryson Warren, according to NBA.com’s transaction log. Warren signed with Detroit on Sunday, but he wasn’t on the training camp roster the club released Monday, making the move expected. He’s slated to report to the Motor City Cruise, Detroit’s G League affiliate, this fall.

Kon Knueppels Camp Update Leaves Hornets With An Early Concern
Kon Knueppels first Hornets training camp has opened with a familiar kind of offseason caution, as the rookie wing continues working back from a left hamstring injury. The good news is the pain is gone, and the focus now is on rebuilding strength as Charlotte begins sorting out its rotation and getting a look at how Knueppel fits into the mix.
The concern, though, is less about discomfort and more about timing. Charlotte has already ruled him out of all four preseason games, and the team plans to take another look during the first week of the regular season, leaving his status for opening night very much up in the air as camp gets underway.

Hornets Still Face A Brandon Miller Decision That Could Reshape Plans
Brandon Millers next contract has become one of the most important items on the Hornets offseason to-do list, even with training camp and the new season drawing closer. Charlotte has not signed the young wing to a rookie-scale extension, leaving his long-term status tied to the kind of decision that can shape how a rebuilding team budgets, plans, and prioritizes its core pieces.
The Hornets still have a window to work through the details, but the clock is moving and the stakes are clear for a franchise trying to build around its young talent. Millers development has already made him a central figure in Charlottes future, and what happens on his deal will ripple into how the team approaches the year ahead and the seasons beyond it.

Hornets Mark Williams Trade Debate Just Got More Complicated
Mark Williams exit from Charlotte was already one of the franchises most delicate decisions, and the trade with Phoenix only seemed to get more layered as time went on. The former No. 15 pick had been sent to the Suns in June 2025 after a rescinded deal with the Lakers tied to medical concerns, and he went on to post his best NBA season in Phoenix before injuries started interrupting the momentum late in the year.
For the Hornets, the deal was never just about moving on from a talented center. Charlotte got back Liam McNeeley, Vasilije Micic, and a 2029 first-round pick, and McNeeley has already flashed real promise with a strong rookie season and a notable Summer League showing. Williams new extension only sharpened the debate about what his next chapter might have looked like, and now the conversation has become even more complicated as the trade continues to be judged through very different lenses.
