Commanding win vs. Thunder shows Hornets must make key change this season

The Charlotte Hornets may have pulled off one of the most unlikely wins this season, defeating the reigning champions 124-97. They rolled out a starting lineup of LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, Kon Knueppel, Miles Bridges, and Moussa Diabate, and all things considered, they should stick with it for the rest of the season.

Since the regular season opened, Ryan Kalkbrenner has been the default starting center. The rookie has done an admirable job, turning in a historically efficient shooting from the field while providing the Hornets with the rim deterrent they had been looking for in the past years.
