The Charlotte Hornets are spiraling, dropping four straight to fall to 4-11, with LaMelo Ball openly frustrated after a loss to the injury-riddled Pacers. Despite solid numbers from Ball and Miles Bridges, the team struggles across the board with poor shooting, turnovers, and bottom-tier ratings on both ends.

Rookie Kon Knueppel shows promise, but wins remain scarce. Surprisingly, the Los Angeles Clippers share the same 4-11 record. Injuries to Bradley Beal, inconsistency from Kawhi Leonard, and aging veterans have left James Harden and Ivica Zubac carrying the load. With weak offense and defense, a full reset may be looming in Los Angeles.

James Harden over his last 6 games:

31 PTS – 5 REB – 8 AST
28 PTS – 6 REB – 5 AST
37 PTS – 7 REB – 8 AST
41 PTS – 14 REB – 11 AST
23 PTS – 8 REB – 5 AST
35 PTS – 11 AST – 6 3PM

He’s doing all he can…
