Hornets Open Season Without Knueppel, White and Williams at Brooklyn
In Charlotte, a city in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, the Charlotte Hornets will open the season on Wednesday, October 21, at the Brooklyn Nets without three players: Kon Knueppel (hamstring), Coby White (calf) and Grant Williams (hamstring). Head coach Charles Lee said all three are progressing well but gave no timetable; returns are possible as early as Friday against Atlanta or Saturday against Miami.
Knueppel averaged 18.5 points and 5.3 rebounds as a rookie, shot 42.5 percent from three and made 273 three-pointers, a rookie record. The trio has resumed individual work but has not been cleared for game action.
