KON KNUEPPEL makes HISTORY | Hornets CRUSH Pacers | Brandon Miller SEASON HIGH

Episode 2280 Published 17 hours ago
Description

The Charlotte Hornets have secured their ninth consecutive road victory, a dominant 133-109 win over the Indiana Pacers that signaled a team operating at the peak of its powers. While the team as a whole tied a record with 72 total three-pointers over a three-game span, the individual spotlight belongs to Kon Knueppel. The rookie sensation has officially surpassed Keegan Murray to claim the NBA record for most three-pointers made by a rookie in a single season, achieving the feat in a staggering 60 games. We look at his humble reaction to the milestone and why his "all gas, no ego" approach has made him a perfect fit for this ascending roster.

Brandon Miller also turned in a spectacular performance, leading the squad with a season-high 33 points while showcasing elite shot-making in the third quarter. We examine how the presence of a healthy LaMelo Ball and the addition of Coby White have unlocked this offense, allowing the Hornets to dismantle opponents with historic efficiency from the perimeter. The conversation also covers the updated Eastern Conference standings, where Charlotte remains firmly in the hunt for postseason positioning with 22 games left on the schedule. Despite some quiet statistical nights from veterans like Miles Bridges, the collective energy of the "Killer Bees" starting lineup has the Queen City dreaming of a deep playoff run. This isn't just a fun streak; it is a declaration that the Hornets have arrived as a legitimate threat in the East.
