The Charlotte Hornets have had an offseason for the ages. Still, their success heavily boils down to their best and most popular player, LaMelo Ball, developing into a more serious basketball player. Of course, he also has to be on the court more than he is on the sidelines.
Dave DuFour, Andrew Schlecht, and Keith Parish of "The Athletic NBA Daily" recently talked about the Hornets, pointing out that Ball is a major reason people pay to see the team. It wouldn't be surprising if that were true, as the 2021 Rookie of the Year is quite entertaining to watch.
