It's not been the kind of start to the season that Charlotte Hornets fans had been hoping for. This team has struggled to win games and put together high-level offensive stretches without LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller on the floor, and that's precisely the frustration fans thought they might be done with headed into the season.
One of the primary reasons for excitement surrounding this team all summer was the increased roster depth as compared to the last three seasons. The Hornets had routinely found themselves in a difficult position over the course of the last three seasons when injury troubles inevitably reared their ugly heads.
