The Charlotte Hornets have not fared well this season in the paint, and it seems that the team is being scored on at will by opposing offenses. The Hornets are currently ranked at #30 in the league in paint points allowed per game.
The Hornets currently have two centers who have not played defense well in the paint this season, and both are averaging under one block per game. The Hornets lack length at the center position, and James Wiseman may be the perfect candidate for Charlotte’s future defense.
On Wednesday, CBS Sports reported that Wiseman was suspended for twelve games based on recruiting inducements his family received prior to enrolling at the University of Memphis.
