The topic of discussion all offseason for Charlotte Hornets fans was the center position, and which of the three currently rostered centers is going to be the best bet for this team in the upcoming regular season. As of right now, Ryan Kalkbrenner is making quite the case for himself.
Moussa Diabate and Mason Plumlee are going to continue to bring their own unique strengths and make their own meaningful contributions to this team as well, but Kalkbrenner has certainly impressed many to this point. In his first preseason start against the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday, Ryan put up a 14-point, 10-rebound double-double while making all seven of his shot attempts.
