Hornets Summer League Roster

Recommended Posts

So far, Brady Manek (UNC/Oklahoma), Justin Minaya (Providence/South Carolina), and Isaiah Whaley (UCONN) look to be on the roster… I assume they’ll be joining James Bouknight, Kai Jones, JT Thor, Bryce McGowens, and Mark Williams.

Theoretically they could also invite Scottie Lewis and Arnoldas Kulboka though both are restricted free agents.

Then you have some guys from the Swarm who may join: Luke Maye (was acquired last year in a G-League trade but was overseas when the trade went through, he’s now back in NC), LiAngelo Ball (who know’s what the situation is here), D.J. Carton, Joe Chealey, Jalen Crutcher, Cameron McGriff, and Jarrell Brantley.

Looks like Bouknight just had surgery and won’t be playing Summer League ball, it’s a shame cause he could have used it.

It seems like every time we have an exciting second year player he gets injured before or during summer league. Hopefully Kai will be good to go.

I hope we don’t go into this years summer league without an actual point guard again, last year was painful to watch.

Would be great if we could get a PG who will play like an actual PG. I get sick of watching guys think they are MJ/Kobe/whoever and play ISO ball and never distribute to our actual prospects.

Looks like the Hornets have once again decided to go into summer league play without solid point guard play. Jalen Crutcher is probably the only true point guard on the roster.

This is my team. I've had high-ish hopes for Scottie Lewis since I saw him at the McDonald's All American Game. Kai Jones is my dude. I like Justin Minaya since his freshman year. And then Bryce McGowens is a local kid that went to my high school. Fun group.

Just wish we had another ball handler that could get all these guys open shots.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
