The thing that bugged Charlotte Hornets fans the most during his first season was his player rotations. They were never consistent. Malik Monk was constantly sitting on the bench, and Miles Bridges wasn’t inserted into the starting line-up until it was almost too late.
But the thing that irked Hornets fans the most was the $24 million, 9.3 points per game, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.3 assist man, Nicolas Batum. Absolutely no one (and I mean NO ONE) could figure out why the heck he was receiving any minutes except maybe for the fact the Hornets didn’t want to waste money on the bench.
