The Hornets have signed 27-year old shooting guard Luther Head to a 2-year, $2.3 million dollar deal. Head played in 47 games (10 starts) for the Pacers last season and he averaged 17.3 minutes, 7.6 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. He has now played in 312 games (68 starts) in his five years in the NBA and he has averaged 23.1 minutes, 8.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game. This was a outstanding signing for the Hornets as Head will bring instant offense off the bench for them in the next couple of years.

UPDATE: The Hornets have rescinded their offer to Luther Head due to physical reasons.
