📈 LaMelo’s Growth:
Kemba Walker’s return to the Hornets as a player enhancement coach is already making waves. In Rod Boone’s latest for the Charlotte Observer Kemba discusses working closely with LaMelo Ball, helping him refine his leadership and situational awareness. LaMelo’s effort in film sessions and his off-court dedication have been highlights, but Kemba’s comments suggest there’s still untapped potential.
🏀 Hornets’ Challenges:
The Hornets remain stuck in a tough season. Injuries, inconsistency, and struggles with a three-point heavy offense have made wins scarce. Charles Lee’s system may be built for success, but without the right roster, execution is faltering. LaMelo’s hot stretches continue to provide hope, but more is needed to turn the tide.
🔥 What’s Next for LaMelo?
With LaMelo leading All-Star votes for Eastern guards and averaging 30 points, his ceiling is as high as ever. The question is whether the Hornets can match his growth with improvements across the roster. Kemba’s mentorship could be the key to unlocking LaMelo’s next level, but it’s a race against time to align the team’s vision with its star player’s prime.
