Hornets' PR Debacle | Coach Lee’s Defensive Strides | Breaking the Curse

In this episode of Locked On Hornets, we dissect the Charlotte Hornets' latest PR blunder involving a PS5 giveaway that turned sour and what it says about the franchise’s need for better fan engagement. We then turn our attention to the court, examining Charles Lee’s defensive adjustments and how they’ve impacted the team’s performance. Can the Hornets make strides to shed their "cursed" reputation, or is this a symptom of deeper organizational issues? We also dig into listener questions about the state of the team, from draft lottery hopes to the road back to relevancy. Join us for a fast-paced and passionate look at all things Hornets.
