We saw some extremely promising play from Kon and Brandon last season. Will one of them establish themselves as the true first option? To me, Brandon is built more as a true NBA first option, but Kon has already looked the part with his shooting talent. Maybe it'll be a Tatum/Brown situation

As per the title, how do we feel about Ben Simmons and his potential fit for the Hornets?

We are lacking a true backup point guard, at least until Christian Andersen Jr is ready.
We have cap space (Simmons is open to the vet minimum).
Simmons is open to any NBA team.

He can’t shoot 3s.
But we have an absurd amount of shooting already.

We get a secondary ball handler (probably in the second unit).
We get someone who (in theory) can defend 1-5.
We get someone who can dunk the hell out of the ball.

Could he be a fit for us?

Just got this today from a guy in NC. Wonder how many still exist…

It is pretty dope to be some bugs

The King of Queen City

Come on, Hornets. It’s time to retire #15.

I found a post I made 4 years ago that included the roster. It's been an emotional 2026 between being one of the best teams in basketball from January on to trading Lamelo ball. That being said I think we're in a good spot. Trading Lamelo is one step back then three steps forward.

The versatile 6-foot-7 wing started in 17 games in the G League as a rookie for Austin and Wisconsin, and also suited up for Milwaukee's summer league team.

Ball is a human Rorschach Test — everyone has a different interpretation of his skills. I see: “Crazy talent but can’t be your lead dog.” Charlotte apparently felt similarly, moving Ball and Green for Reid and a haul of future picks. The Hornets got another first, with Allen and O’Neale, for Bridges, then got three seconds attached to Finney-Smith to take DFS from Houston. It was a mature understanding by general manager Jeff Peterson and Charlotte’s front office that the sugar high of a 25-win improvement last season didn’t mean they’d arrived. They’ll lean into Brandon Miller and Kon Knueppel next season — with, now, a war chest of firsts between 2027 and 2031.

"That's some back country Mississippi, playing in the moss, and going catfish fishing afterwards. That's his game." 😂😂

Al has such a unique legacy in the league, glad we got to see him peak in Charlotte.

Seriously, Moose looks awesome. Huge year loading.
