The Charlotte Hornets have waived former first-round pick Kai Jones, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic (Twitter link). The team confirmed the news in a press release.

Jones, the No. 19 overall pick in the 2021 draft, has been absent from the Hornets with no set return date due to personal reasons.

This decision was prompted by the 22-year-old’s peculiar social media activity, where he criticized some teammates through tweets and videos.

Jones had limited impact in his first two professional seasons, averaging 2.7 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.1 minutes per game over 67 appearances.
