He resigned with them, most likely (in my opinion) under the assumption that he'd get minutes at the 3 and 4. Barring injuries, the minutes won't be there.
I think that that's the reason why, and if that's true, I respect Hornets management a lot.

With Mashburn currently on crutches and without the ability to support his own weight, Nailon would have started the first 3-6 games in the season. Also, with Mash's injury problems last year, the Hornets need all the insurance they can get.
