Team Hornets - NBA • November 18th, 2024 3:50 am • 4 min read
Sample description for image 1 on NBA Carousel
HHow did your favorite (or most-hated) NBA team do during the 2024 offseason?
The following list describes each in a single word, followed by a brief explanation. For some, context is needed.
For others, the word should be enough, but we'll still explain the logic.
The Atlanta Hawks sent significant draft currency to the San Antonio Spurs to acquire Dejounte Murray, who they recently traded to the New Orleans Pelicans to recoup some of what was lost.
The team did luck into the No. 1 overall pick to draft Zaccharie Risacher, but is the 19-year-old wing ready to help the team win around Trae Young?
Identifying direction is difficult, as the Hawks seem to be running in place.

Boston Celtics: Confident H1
The Boston Celtics have a few issues to sort through—notably Kristaps Porziņģis' leg injury, which will keep him out to start the season.
Otherwise, Boston seems confident in what it has, reinvesting with extensions for Jayson Tatum, Jrue Holiday, Derrick White and Sam Hauser. Once Porziņģis is healthy, the Celtics have essentially the same squad that just won a championship.
"I haven't been told that officially, but I do understand that's what's going to happen" - Luka Doncic
The roster is expensive, but the Celtics are looking to pad their lead over the Los Angeles Lakers for the all-time title count.

Brooklyn Nets: Self-Aware H2
This is a H4 heading
- Too often, NBA teams don't recognize who they are. The Brooklyn Nets were looking at a Mikal Bridges-led squad after the Kevin Durant/Kyrie Irving/James Harden trio fell apart.
- Showing self-awareness, the Nets began a proper rebuild, sending Bridges to the New York Knicks. Look for Brooklyn to continue shedding veterans while adding youth and draft picks.
- It's often better to sell early than too late; the Nets seemed to recognize that well.

Charlotte Hornets: Searching H3
The Hornets are still searching for an identity.
Michael Jordan sold the team last year to Gabe Plotkin and Rich Schnall. Jeff Peterson took over as the top basketball executive. The franchise hasn't made the postseason since 2016, and the moves this summer probably won't change that trend.
