Hornets Summer League Roster

Looking good today…Manek should find a spot IMO

Honestly it appears Kia needs more time.  Serious flashes but he needs to get a lot more fundamentally sound and execute plays with much more precision 

McGowens looks like another gem in the 2nd.   Smooth player

Williams is huge but needs time to get comfortable in the offense.  Needs to be more patient let things come to him

Hornets beat the Cavs 91-80

Hornets looked solid today, all around good performance by all the guys. What really helped was not playing three bigs together.

The Hornets two draft picks were the team leaders today:

Bryce McGowens - 24 points (70% FG, 83% 3P, 83% FT), 2 rebounds, 1 assist, +/-0

Mark Williams - 12 points (67% FG), 8 rebounds (2 off), 2 blocks, 2 steals, 1 assist, +4

The guy is a troll at this point I skip his post like the lifetime network channel..

Hahhaha look at my history buddy. Mark my words Duren will be a star. Look up Summer league first teams. He is the Center in every one. Again, just turned 18 youngest player in the draft and has been a star.

Duren isn't a miss, but Eason is.

I was begging the Hornets to not do anything stupid and just take Eason and Williams at 13 and 15, and we had a chance to do it, yet we traded away for nothing.

I'm officially on the fire Kupchak and clean house bandwagon after tonight. If we didn't get lucky and move up ONLY to 3rd (because we'd be dumb enough to take Wiseman 1 or 2 over Edwards and LaMelo), we'd have one of the worst futures in all of sports. 

I honestly think the RealGM Hornets board collective can and will have done a better job GM'ing the team than the two jabronis they have had over the last 12 years.

They both are huge misses. You guys are just hating on Duren now b/c you cant admit you are wrong. Duren is 18 and already has a nasty NBA body... will develop a shot and would DESTROY Williams with his strength and freaky athleticism. Williams moves wayyyy too slow out there to play against non summer league NBA guys. Looked terrible against freaking Shareef Oneal...

My whole point is.... If you think the Hornets are going to make the playoffs or made the right moves at the draft, I want what you are smoking. This team got worse and I would be shocked if Williams is anything but an 8th man rotation player at best throughout his entire career.

    • I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.
    • Sure.    ignore that he said this roster wasn’t good in 2023 to 2024 but keep up the effort
    • While I don't believe its a must win, (we have been better on the road this post season) it is definitely A NEED TO WIN the longer this series goes the more pronounced the Canes advantage on rest and health will be! If we hold serve at home in games 1 and 2 guaranteeing a 6 game minimum series for them if we lose the road games..... by the game 4 and 5 I expect them to be beat they have played A LOT OF HOCKEY the last three years, they have MINIMAL rest off a more physical than one might have expected series vs the leafs.... you know Tampa took their pound of flesh in round 1 from them. Combine all that with the fact that even though this year's canes squad isn't as talented as last years this IS a better squad than the one they swept last time that had McKenzie Mckeathern on line 1 Turbo with a broken hand a banged uo and eventually concussed Slavin (and even though it was a sweep 6 OTS and 4 1 goal losses is hardly dominant)  This year Bob hasn't been superman (hes probably gonna still have a great save percentage agiast us just a side effect of our style) Thatchuk is maybe 50% (3 game winners agiast us) their defense no longer has Gudas and several other downgrades.  While the Canes have a healthy and performing Svechnikov along with other big guys to counteract florida like Carrier, Jankowski, Robinson.   I by know means think it will happen but I either see this as a low scoring dog fight or a series were the canes surprise and end up dominating.
