The Charlotte Hornets have shown bursts of potential over the last few years, but they have yet to take the next level as a franchise. While fans know that there is still loads of adversity ahead, the 2024-25 NBA season offers the squad an auspicious opportunity to achieve significant growth on both collective and individual levels.
Health could be the only real impediment preventing the Hornets from effectively forming a young, exciting core this year. LaMelo Ball, who has missed the majority of each of the last two seasons with an ankle injury, is pumped up about the prospect of playing an entire campaign with Brandon Miller and Miles Bridges.
