2025-26 Training Camp and Preseason

Yeah, I suppose it’s aging about as well as your game thread take on Miles did the other night.

He ended up with 30 on 10-16 and 6-11 from 3.

We all have takes. Sometimes we’re right, sometimes we’re wrong. We’ve all been plenty of both. As it relates to Ace, we shall see how it ages over time. It may be a couple of years before we know which is ultimately the better player. Kon is obviously the more game ready player right now. Ace is going to take some time to find his legs, but he clearly has a skill set that was on display in the preseason so I still feel like he has the tools to become a very good player. Tre has been as advertised, an immediate impact guy who projects to be a high level scorer. I wouldn’t be mad at all if we had him. But yes, I am very pleased with Kon. How could anyone not be so far. But as I’ve said, it’s all about where the ceiling is. We all remember that Okafor was better than Dwight their rookie year. But Okafor was at his ceiling and never got much better. He had a solid, but unspectacular career while Dwight obviously reached his much higher ceiling and ended up in the HOF.

We have no idea how the careers for any of the three will pan out at this point. We will have to wait and see. But to be clear, I am pulling for Kon. I’m a Hornets fan and I want our players to be good more than I want my take to be proven right.
