Tobey's second 10-day contract with the Hornets expired Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The Hornets are still low on center depth with Cody Zeller (quad) and Miles Plumlee (calf) sidelined, but it's unclear if they want to commit a roster spot to Tobey, an undrafted rookie out of Virginia, for the remainder of the season. Tobey made two appearances over the course of his two 10-day contract flights with the Hornets, averaging 1.0 point and 1.5 rebounds in 12.5 minutes per game.

Tobey signed a second 10-day contract Monday with the Hornets, Chris Haynes of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tobey did not see the floor in any of the four games he played under his first 10-day contract, but the team may have seen something from the 22-year-old big man in practice that led them to keep him around for at least another 10 days. With Roy Hibbert and Spencer Hawes traded away and Cody Zeller continuing to battle a quad injury, Tobey will continue to provide depth at the center position behind Frank Kaminsky and Miles Plumlee, and even if he does end up seeing the floor over the next 10 days, his impact will likely be limited.

Tobey will sign a 10-day contract with the Hornets on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Vertical reports.
EDGE Analysis
Charlotte traded Spencer Hawes and Roy Hibbert for Miles Plumlee on Thursday, opening a roster spot that Tobey will be filling. An undrafted center, Tobey will look to hold onto a spot near the bottom of the Hornets' depth chart. It's unlikely that he sees many minutes in the near future, barring several injuries at the position.

Tobey was waived by the Hornets on Saturday, Jeff Goodman of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Unsurprisingly, the Virginia product will be left off the Hornets' 15-man, opening night roster. Tobey, who signed a training camp deal in July, will likely wind up in the D-League this season.

Tobey (hamstring) isis probable to play Saturday against Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Tobey has been struggling with injuries on both of his hamstrings, which has kept him from seeing any court time in the preseason thus far. Considering that Tobey isn't officially on the regular season roster and he's dealing with injuries, he'll likely be evaluated for a spot in the NBA D-League.

Tobey (hamstring) has been ruled out of Thursday's preseason matchup with the Celtics, Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tobey is dealing with injuries to both of his hamstrings and has yet to see action in the preseason thus far. He's not a lock to make the team's regular season roster, so his current injured status is a tough blow to his chances. He'll likely open the season in the NBA D-League or on a contract overseas.

Tobey will miss Monday's preseason opener against the Mavericks while he tends to injuries to both of his hamstrings, Rich Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer reports.
EDGE Analysis
The extent of Tobey's injuries aren't known, but it's certainly damaging to the undrafted big man's hopes of making the Hornets' roster out of training camp. At this point, Tobey is likely just being evaluated for a spot with D-League Greensboro during camp.
