Brandon Miller confident in Hornets' chances for upcoming NBA season

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller expressed optimism about the team's potential for the 2026-27 NBA season during an appearance on the 'Road Trippin' Show.' Following the trade of LaMelo Ball and Josh Green to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Miller noted he and second-year forward Kon Knueppel are poised to take on larger roles. The Hornets have added depth with the acquisitions of Naz Reid and Hannes Steinbach, as well as defensive additions in Dorian Finney-Smith and Royce O'Neale. Miller believes a healthy roster can compete effectively across the league, referencing their strong performance post-All-Star break last year.
