Charlotte Hornets: PJ Washington is earning a starting spot

Even though the Charlotte Hornets have lost their first three preseason games, all hope is not lost. If there’s one thing that fans have been able to take away from the preseason, it’s the fact that PJ Washington is the real deal.

On Friday, PJ Washington earned his first start of the preseason with the team. This opportunity arose after the recent injury that Nicolas Batum picked up in Charlotte’s loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

Coach James Borrego has noticed the terrific play from Washington, and he has been getting more playing time in each game.
