Summary
The Charlotte Hornets are reloading for the future after a big 2026 NBA Draft haul, landing top pick Hannes Steinbach — a German freshman forward from Washington — despite slipping to 14th overall. Last year’s high pick (4th) brought in breakout star Kon Knueppel, steady contributor Sion James, and versatile Ryan Kalkbrenner, setting the stage for a promising rebuild. With an 18th pick still on the board, the Hornets are clearly stacking the deck for long-term success. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
