NBA Season Preview 2022-23: Every team’s current longest-tenured player
By Luke Anton
Charlotte Hornets: P.J. Washington, 3 years
The Charlotte Hornets selected P.J. Washington with the No. 12 pick in the 2019 draft. Cody Martin and Jalen McDaniels were second-round picks that night, and the Hornets acquired Terry Rozier later that summer from the Celtics in the Kemba Walker sign-and-trade. So the quartet of Washington, Martin, McDaniels and Rozier have been playing together in Charlotte for three seasons now, going on a fourth.
Washington is currently rookie-extension eligible and could become a restricted free agent next summer.
