The New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets announced today that they have waived Lithuanian shooting guard Arvydas Macijauskas.

?Arvydas?s role last season was not what either he or the organization envisioned when we signed him as a free agent, and both parties agreed that this was a mutually beneficial decision,? said Hornets General Manager Jeff Bower.

Macijauskas was signed as a free agent from the Euroleague's TAU Ceramica on August 2, 2005 and averaged 2.3 points and 0.3 assists while shooting .341 (14-41) from the field in 19 games for the Hornets last season.
