If Gordon Hayward misses time, Charlotte will have one player (Mason Plumlee) over the age of 27 in their entire active roster.
For perspective:
– Houston have x3
– Spurs have x3
– Orlando have x1
– Detroit x1 – 8:49 AM

Hard to take too much away from this game with how the second half played out missing Hayward. You reach a point where you’re asking role players to just do too much – 10:09 PM

Think you have to try and downsize here with PJ at center to try and find offense with Hayward out. Think I’d also lean Bouknight over Thor, the team is desperate for shot creation right now as their bad offense is effecting their defense – 9:37 PM

Gordon Hayward has the best footwork <15ft of any Bobcats/Hornets player of the modern era outside of Al Jefferson – 8:18 PM

Dennis Smith Jr’s anticipation is ELITE on the defensive end, another example leading to the Hayward transition basket there – 8:01 PM
