Only time will tell how Kon Knueppel fares with the Charlotte Hornets. All signs are pointing toward the rookie becoming a key contributor for the team, as he has proven to be more than a one-dimensional player.

Kevin O'Connor of Yahoo Sports heaped high praises upon the No. 4 pick, emphasizing how he has "dramatically worked on and improved his No. 1 weakness on offense," which he showcased in Summer League.
