In a season where the Charlotte Hornets were unable to find much success, one person found the opportunity of a lifetime. Ashley ShahAhmadi, a reporter for Fox Sports South, was promoted to be the new full-time sideline reporter covering the Hornets.
This opportunity came after previous Fox Sports South’s sideline reporter, Stephanie Ready, accepted a new job with Turner Sports. When Ashley heard that she was promoted, it was undoubtedly a dream come true.
ShahAhmadi originally started as a pre- and post-game host in 2018 for Fox Sports South, covering the Charlotte Hornets’ home games.
