Charlotte Hornets: Takeaways From the First Quarter of the Season

Related Topics: Charlotte Hornets

21 games into the 2016-17 NBA season and the Charlotte Hornets have a respectable 12-9 record. After a hot start that saw them go 8-3 over the course of their first 11 games, they are only 4-6 since in their last 10. The highs and lows of an 82 game season are already on the team but their start has them in prime position to contend for a playoff spot.

While the Hornets haven’t been outstanding, they have been adequate in their play and are arguably better than what most expected from them. Despite losing a number of key players from last season’s team, Charlotte still has a top level squad in the Eastern Conference.
