The Charlotte Hornets made major headlines in the offseason when they traded star point guard LaMelo Ball to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Charlotte did get an intriguing piece back in the trade, though, and that was big man Naz Reid.
The Charlotte Hornets secured a 110-103 victory against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night, marking their sixth consecutive season-opening win. Offseason acquisition Naz Reid made franchise history during his debut, becoming the first player in Hornets history to record at least 20 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists in their first game for the team. Reid finished with 20 points, 11 rebounds, and seven assists.
Charlotte earned the win despite missing Coby White, Kon Knueppel, and Grant Williams. Fellow offseason additions Grayson Allen and Dennis Schroder also delivered major contributions, with Allen scoring a team-high 21 points off the bench and Schroder posting 19 points and six assists.
