One of the biggest problems the Charlotte Hornets had a year ago still exists today - rebounding the basketball. Charlotte traded for Montrezl Harrell at the deadline last year, which helped improve the numbers some but he's more known as a finisher around the basket than he is a rebounder.
This offseason, the Hornets didn't do much to address the issue as the only move they made in the frontcourt was selecting Mark Williams in the first round of the 2022 NBA Draft. The problem with that is Williams is a project. He's not ready for serious NBA minutes quite yet, so to bank on Nick Richards and Kai Jones to help Mason Plumlee improve those rebounding numbers is quite the ask.
