Tre Mann & Collin Sexton SHINE, but should we be WORRIED about Brandon Miller?! | Full Recap!

The Hornets dropped their second preseason game to the Oklahoma City Thunder 122-116, but this was a much more competitive contest against OKC's starters, and there were plenty of positives to take away. On today's recap, we look at the stellar performances from the backcourt. Tre Mann got the start and led the team with an efficient 18 points on 4-of-6 shooting from three. Collin Sexton provided an instant spark off the bench, igniting the offense with 12 first-quarter points, while LaMelo Ball looked smooth and comfortable in his 25 minutes.Of course, the Moussa Diabaté propaganda continues, as he once again started at center and led the team with a +14 plus-minus, reinforcing the idea that the team is simply better when he is on the floor. However, the biggest point of debate is the continued struggles of Brandon Miller. Despite getting to the free-throw line, he had another rough shooting night (3-of-11) and we discuss whether it's time to be concerned or if patience is still required as he works his way back from a long injury layoffFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://linktr.ee/lockedonhornetsBecome an official member of the Locked On Hornets Sicko Brigade and get Hornets news, rumors and pictures of Byron Mullens sent directly to your phone via Subtext (14 Day Free Trial): https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonhornetsLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAGet Doug's gamenotes, special articles and a podcast on Hornets history at the Every Hornets Boxscore substack: everyhornetsboxscore.comGet more Walker on Wes and Walker 12-3pm on WFNZ 92.7 FMTop 35 Hornets Nicknames of All-Time According to Doug Branson: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-nicknames-in-hornets-franchiseTop 35 Hornets of All-Time According to Walker Mehl: https://hornets.substack.com/p/the-top-35-players-in-hornets-history📲 Follow Locked On Hornets on TwitterLocked On Hornets https://twitter.com/LockedOnHornetsWalker Mehl https://twitter.com/WalkerMehlDoug Branson https://twitter.com/DougBransonLOH Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!OpenPhoneStreamline and scale your customer communications with OpenPhone.
