Chris Paul Hornets Homecoming? 👀 | Brandon Miller's Growth Delayed or Stalled? | Sicko Satchel Road Trip Debate

Should the Charlotte Hornets make one last run at bringing Chris Paul back to his hometown? On today’s episode of Locked On Hornets , we dive into the longstanding debate on CP3's potential return—this time with real context as he looks for a new team after his San Antonio stint. We weigh the pros and cons of adding a 40-year-old legend to back up LaMelo Ball, especially given the Hornets' injury history and halfcourt struggles. Doug argues that a consistent play style is more important than nostalgia, while Walker sees value in CP3’s veteran savvy and game management. What would $10M get Charlotte this offseason—and is it worth the price tag? Then it’s time for a journey through the Big Board Time Machine as we reevaluate Brandon Miller’s pre-draft scouting report. Has he shown the “can do everything” game scouts promised, or is his lack of rim pressure and finishing still a concern? Plus: Sicko Satchel chaos! A NASCAR-distance road trip question turns into fast food debates, combo snacks, Zaxby’s devotion, and hypothetical burps from bad Italian food. Finally, a tease of Friday’s mock UFA draft challenge with only $20M to spend.
