Some Charlotte Hornets fans may not want to admit it, but Tyrese Haliburton is not overrated. He has the Indiana Pacers on the brink of a Finals appearance, and his most recent performance saw him tally his 11th game with at least 15 assists and zero turnovers. Interestingly, his feat has had people on social media finding out that Muggsy Bogues put up such a stat line a total of seven times. To put the Hornets icon's achievement in perspective, two-time MVP Steve Nash also did it seven times.

This season, three first-timers were able to secure an All-NBA slot, with Evan Mobley joining the second team and Cade Cunningham and Jalen Williams making it to the third squad. Cameron Salerno of CBS Sports predicted who among the players drafted in the 2020s will be next to secure the feat, and LaMelo Ball astonishingly didn't appear on the list. Topping the list are Victor Wembanyama and Paolo Banchero.

The San Antonio Spurs' rise to No. 2 in the 2025 draft was a pleasant surprise for them, but it also presented them with a tough problem. Maybe the Charlotte Hornets can help them solve it by crafting a trade before or on draft night. The consensus is that the Spurs would use the pick on Dylan Harper. However, they already have reigning Rookie of the Year Stephon Castle and former franchise Sacramento Kings franchise player De'Aaron Fox.

The Denver Nuggets are at a crossroads this offseason, as they have probably realized that their current core might not be enough anymore to deliver the championship trophy to the Mile High City. A roster shakeup could be on the horizon, and Michael Porter Jr. appears to be the guy most likely to be traded this summer. Maybe it's best if the Charlotte Hornets steer clear of the fallout since the forward is already 26 and set to earn $38.8 million next season and $40.8 million the following year.

The Charlotte Hornets' not landing in the top three of the 2025 draft left them with a predicament. With Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper presumably out of the picture, they have to wait for what the Philadelphia 76ers will do with the No. 3 pick before coming to a decision a selection later. However, with the Sixers reportedly open to trading down in the draft, per NBA insider Jake Fischer (subscription required), Charlotte could try to move up and decide its own fate.
