The Charlotte Hornets put forth one of the best summer league performances we’ve seen from them in a long while. The win over the Spurs showed that summer league doesn’t have to be a complete disorganized mess that’s virtually indiscernible from a bunch of randoms playing pickup basketball together. Head coach Charles Lee is coaching the summer league team, and that gave us a slight peek at what kind of team he is going to coach.
First things first–the Hornets beat the brakes off the Spurs. They jumped all over their first summer league opponent, racing out to a 23-9 lead by the end of the first quarter.
