Episode 1981
The Charlotte Hornets are struggling through a tough stretch, dropping multiple games over the weekend despite standout moments from Brandon Miller and Mark Williams. Doug Branson and Walker Mehl examine what’s behind the team’s historically bad offense, even as the defense shows surprising strength. Is the problem a lack of talent, shaky team dynamics, or simply poor effort? They spotlight LaMelo Ball’s recent shooting struggles, Brandon Miller’s encouraging play, and Mark Williams’ consistency issues.
The episode also explores whether the Hornets are quietly heading toward a tanking strategy to improve their draft lottery odds. Could this be the season to aim for a transformative talent like Cooper Flagg? Plus, with Jimmy Butler’s situation in Miami heating up, the hosts discuss whether Charlotte should consider a bold move for the star forward. Would Butler’s leadership be a game-changer for the Hornets, or is this a move that could backfire?
Catch all this and more as Locked On Hornets unpacks the latest challenges, potential trade scenarios, and what the rest of the season might hold.
