The Charlotte Hornets were mighty busy this offseason.
After losing in the first game of the play-in tournament, the Hornets looked to improve their roster during the draft and free agency to ensure a further push in the playoffs next season.
ESPN’s Zach Lowe chose the Hornets as one of his winners during the offseason with the additions of Mason Plumlee, Kelly Oubre, and Ish Smith as well as drafting James Bouknight and Kai Jones in the first-round.
The Athletic’s David Aldridge had similar sentiments, giving Charlotte the No. 7 best ranked offseason throughout the entire league.
Check out Aldridge’s reasons behind the No.7 ranking for the Hornets below.
