![]() It seems like every other game we’re talking about a different version of Bryce McGowens. And until then, I stand by my previous statements. He played alright against Chicago, but he needs to give more. On a team with little offensive initiation where he has been handed the keys as the starting point guard, highlights have been few and far between. He’s confident, can dish out some nice passes, and is clearly a solid three-point shooter, but he just hasn’t been that impressive during Summer League. Look, right now, he looks like a solid G League player. However, eight of those points were in the first half, and as mentioned, Crutcher also notched a team-high five turnovers. So, naturally, he went out there against the Bulls and had himself an efficient night, dropping 10 points and five rebounds. ![]() Jalen Crutcher proves me wrong?Īfter Charlotte’s last game, I wrote about how Crutcher shouldn’t be earning start minutes. And when Jalen Crutcher, one of those guys, is turning the ball over five times, that’s not a great start. Again, this team doesn’t have a ton of guys who are comfortable with the ball in their hands. Charlotte was just making silly decisions.ġ2 of their 16 turnovers were in the first half alone, making for a rough watch. They were just giving the ball away at every turn, and most of the giveaways weren’t forced. Watching the game, it seemed like they would have easily cleared the 20-turnover mark. How the Hornets only finished with 16 turnovers is a bit baffling. Unfortunately, this game didn’t exactly scream progression. ![]() But again, Summer League isn’t about wins and losses, it’s about progression. Okay, that’s a bit dramatic, but you get the point.Ĭharlotte looked awful in their game against the Chicago Bulls, as Chicago out-classed them in nearly every facet of the game. Imagine if you took Michael Kidd-Gilchrist’s jump shot, Mason Plumlee’s free-throw shooting, and Adam Morrison’s durability and combined them into one player. Take all of the struggles from the Charlotte Hornets’ previous games and jam-pack them into one game, and that was this. This was probably the worst of the worst.
