Charlotte Hornets

Brandon Miller

F

The Hornets are expected to build around Miller and Kon Knueppel as they enter a new phase of the franchise. Increased usage could boost Miller's counting statistics, although opposing defenses may focus greater attention on him without Ball creating opportunities. He's expected to be 100 percent ahead of training camp following his shoulder surgery in May.

Hall sustained the injury in the G League Greensboro Swarm's playoff win over the Maine Celtics on March 31. The big man appeared in 19 regular-season games (two starts) with Charlotte, averaging 4.5 points and 3.9 rebounds in 11.3 minutes per contest. He's signed to a two-way deal with the Hornets and is slated to return next season.
