Hornets have one of the most underrated guards in the NBA (and it’s not LaMelo)

Plenty of storylines surround the Charlotte Hornets' training camp, including the return of Tre Mann. The team is likely patting itself on the back for being able to re-sign him for an affordable price. Perhaps other franchises did not value him as much as Charlotte did when he was a free agent.

Longtime NBA analyst David Thorpe recently gushed about the underrated guard, stating that he is "way better than people realize." Interestingly, Thorpe even believes that the Hornets' backcourt would be in a good spot even if they move on from LaMelo Ball, as a pairing of Mann and Brandon Miller would be a potent foundation if they decide to change up their rebuilding strategy.
