One scenario no one in the organization wants to imagine, but must at least acknowledge, is the possibility of Coby White signing elsewhere in free agency.In the ideal version of this summer, White is locked into purple and teal for years to come. But the NBA rarely follows the script. White has played himself into a position where multiple teams will make him a priority, and Charlotte can’t assume anything.Coby White and the Hornets want to run it backBoth White and Jeff Peterson have made it clear they want this partnership to continue. When White sat down with Rod Boone last week, he spoke glowingly about his experience in Charlotte:“If I would’ve never came, I wouldn’t know how great the people were here. I never would’ve knew how the organization is ran. I never would’ve knew how the players are prioritized.”White has been refreshingly open about how much he’s enjoyed his time in the Queen City.
