Amputated?
Chef, I swear to you man. Earlier today I thought, “watch Salaun have an amazing summer league and then get seriously injured. That would be a hornets classic.”
There isn’t a 2025 prospect thread so I am posting here:
Kevin D went on to say that Flagg was like a vet because he showed no emotion.
Watch the time out where it’s pretty clear that the vets were trying to figure out how NOT to lose:
Copper shook off Jrue Holiday and made him look old.
This is why a handful of the league is tanking. Not just him, great class as well.

On a 1-10 talent level (10 being most talented), the 2024 draft was like a 2-3/10. The 2025 is looking like a 8-9/10.
Charlotte Hornets
The Hornets could be interesting this year … if LaMelo Ball stays healthy. Ball only played 22 games last year and just 36 games the year before that. He’s been one of the best young guards in the league when he’s actually on the floor, but that hasn’t happened much. Charlotte has a second young star now in Brandon Miller as he enters his sophomore season, and this could very well become his team. If Charlotte wants to climb into the play-in territory, it will also need from its big man room led by Mark Williams. With Josh Green, Miles Bridges (yuck!), and Grant Williams around, there are some decent connective veterans here. I wouldn’t be shocked if the Hornets make a run at the No. 8 seed, but they’re one Ball injury away from being terrible once again.
It isn’t always as it seems. I predict this draft will be better and deeper than it seems. I say 5-6/10
I wouldn’t be shocked if the Hornets make a run at the number 6 seed but if their best players are injury prone again, all bets are off!
Guys, its time to start a “Cooper Flagg 2025 NBA” watch thread. It is time! This could be more exciting than the Wemby sweepstakes!

Yeah, it’s not. It’s the 2024 prospects thread. Strangely enough, it’s in the title and all.
