Show Notes
Kon Knueppel led the Charlotte Hornets to a fifth consecutive victory, scoring 26 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, and dishing out 8 assists against the Knicks. This performance has the Hornets within 1.5 games of the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference. Knueppel set an NBA record by becoming the fastest player under 22 to reach 250 three-pointers in a season. Despite a fan throwing a ball that hit him in the head, Knueppel bounced back to score another three. His impressive shooting percentages (48.9% from the field and 43.8% from three) make him a strong contender for a rare 50-40-90 shooting season. The Hornets face the 76ers on Saturday, another team in the playoff race, with Knueppels rookie year continuing to deliver highlight-reel moments.
