With just 21 wins this past season, new management is here to set the precedent that there needs to be immediate changes. Even if the entire team manages to stay healthy, they are still going to be struggling to close out on the perimeter.

Of that group, the Spurs are the only team that should feel comfortable with their big man. Ayton is a capable big at this stage of his career, but he's not a player who impacts the overall performance of a team.

Atlanta’s most significant impending free agent is Saddiq Bey, who is set to be restricted this summer, but he’ll be recovering from an ACL tear. While the tiebreaker winner will pick ahead of the loser(s) in the first round, that order will be flipped in the second round.

Bryce McGowens is set to enter the third year of his NBA career and with a new coaching staff entering the fold, he and the rest of the Charlotte Hornets will have a blank canvas to work with. Injuries will always carry with them an aspect of misfortune and uncertainty, they will never be completely preventable. However, with LaMelo Ball now openly discussing his consideration of wearing ankle braces, it may be time to have him do whatever is necessary. Having only played 58 games throughout the past two years, Ball’s presence, or lack thereof, will continue to make or break this team.

The Hornets compete in the National Basketball Association as a member of the league's Eastern Conference Southeast Division, and play their home games at the Spectrum Center in Uptown Charlotte.
With a roster that doesn’t fit together even when healthy, Atlanta could look to go in a number of different directions this offseason.

With more foundational pieces in place this time around, the Nets are hoping Fernandez can turn things around even faster. Charlotte, which is building around young players like LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller, is seeking a first-time head coach who specializes in player development to lead its young squad.
