Ball averaged 15.7 points, 6.1 assists, 5.9 rebounds in 51 games to lead the Hornets into the NBA's play-in tournament. Despite dealing with a hand injury and missing 21 games he finished second in scoring among all rookies during the regular season.
Panthers rookie defensive back Jeremy Chinn was not selected as a finalist for the 2020 Pepsi Zero Sugar NFL Rookie of the Year Award and Kyle Bailey is flabbergasted. Bailey and Co-Host Stan Norfleet took particular exception with the selection of James Robinson over Chinn to the final five.
Each season comes with new expectations and this year those expectations are higher than Hornet fans are used to. Can rookie Lamelo Ball become the biggest sports star in the city? He just bought Cam Newtons old condo, maybe he can take over Cam's place as the premiere athlete in the city.
