## Resource

The Charlotte Hornets are soaring—winning as many games in January and February as they did all last year, adding 25 wins to their total and pulling off a dramatic Play-In upset against the Heat. Built around rising stars LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, and Kon Knueppel, the young core is climbing out of the Eastern Conference basement, though Miles Bridges’ uncertain future could reshape their draft strategy. With two first-round picks, the Hornets are targeting size in the frontcourt—possibly Aday Mara or Hannes Steinbach—and a backup point guard like Christian Anderson to support LaMelo. Under GM Jeff Peterson, they’re building a future-focused roster designed to dominate the paint and stabilize the backcourt. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
