## Resource

The Hornets may be ranked 17th in the future NBA power rankings, but don’t count them out — trading LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges wasn’t a step back, it was a calculated leap. With Brandon Miller and rookie Kon Knueppel stepping into star roles, Charlotte’s young core is primed for explosive growth. Team president Jeff Peterson backed the move, trusting these players’ development despite the emotional toll. Smart moves like upgrading draft picks show a long-term vision, and the new projected starting five gives Miller and Knueppel the offensive freedom they need to shine. This isn’t the end — it’s the beginning of something bigger. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
