Miles Bridges 427th
LaMelo Ball 425th
JT Thor 424th
Nick Richards 418th
Leaky Black 410th
Mark Williams 356th


Just an embarrassing showing. Its probably half the players fault and half the coaching...there doesn't seem to be accountability on either

For all the complaining about LaMelo... and he's one of the problems... he is somehow one of the best defenders on the team!!!

Also, Hayward just looks really slow. I think he's about done being a big minute player. He needs to be in a 18 mpg role off the bench


Posted this in the Rozier thread, but this is pretty useless. Towns is a top 20 defender on Drating because the Wolves are a good team. If he were on the Hornets he would be in the 400s like everyone else. It is more of a team stat and really should only be used by players within the same team.

I promise Daniel Gafford isnt the 469th best defender in the league. and Bruce Brown should not be in the 450s range either.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
