Nicolas Batum proved to be a solid acquisition for the Charlotte Hornets, whom they acquired from Portland. The product of France has shown a decent scoring ability as he has averaged 12.8 Points per Game, which includes a 15.1 PPG season in the 2015-16 seacareer-higher high. Batum's defensive abilities don't always go noticed outside of Charlotte but it should as that has been some of the better attributes of his game. He played for Charlotte until the end of the 2019-20 Season, after which he joined the Los Angeles Clippers.
