Mack is averaging 7.9 points per game (414% shooting), 3.4 assists per game, and 1.9 rebounds per game.

The Hornets must have liked what they saw a few games ago when Mack put up 19 points (533 FG%, 600 3P%), 9 assists, 1 rebound, and 2 assists.

I’m assuming Mack is insurance for any time Tony Parker may miss during the rest of the year.

I agree with rest of you and don’t see the fit unless Parker will be out longer than anticipated and even then with the All-Star break coming up we really only need to get by with Kemba and Devonte’ for two games.

My argument against the Hornets has always been that we don’t give rookies a chance. Throw them to the fire, let them get in games and see what happens. Sure Mack is better than Devonte’ right now but is he that much better that Devonte needs to be relegated back to the G-League?

Heck, Jalen Brunson is nearly averaging 20 minutes per game on a Dallas team that is better than us and Brunson was drafted exactly one spot ahead of Graham.

I don’t think Graham has shown enough to warrant a start but 15 minutes a game over these next two isn’t going to be the reason we miss the playoffs.

For the most part JB is good at getting the rookies some burn but I just don’t get this move.

      his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen.

      Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.

      Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
