Outside of health, there is one clear area that the Charlotte Hornets must improve upon this season. Three-point shooting.
Charlotte found themselves among the worst three-point shooting teams last season. The Hornets averaged 10.7 makes per game, which ranks 28th. Additionally, their three-point percentage (33%) was second-worst in the league. This cannot happen again if the Hornets are going to be a competitive basketball team this season.
As mentioned above, injuries came into play last season. LaMelo Ball (46 games missed), Gordon Hayward (32 games missed), and Terry Rozier (19 games missed) all missed enough time last season to negatively impact the team’s performance in this area.
