The Charlotte Hornets had one of the best scoring benches in the NBA last season. The team replaced many of their key pieces from the second unit from last year. With the loss of Jeremy Lin and Al Jefferson, the new acquisitions must make up for their lost contributions.
Marco Belinelli, Ramon Sessions, and Roy Hibbert were the new players brought in this summer to help shoulder the load. Jeremy Lamb and Frank Kaminsky are two returning players who will need to have a bigger role with the bench unit this season.
