The Charlotte Hornets concluded a productive training camp at The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina, as they prepared for the 2026-27 NBA season. With numerous offseason acquisitions, including Naz Reid, Grayson Allen, Dennis Schroder, Royce O'Neale, Hannes Steinbach, and Christian Anderson Jr., the team focused on building chemistry before the demanding 82-game regular season.
Charlotte will tip off its four-game preseason schedule on Tuesday, October 6, at the Spectrum Center against the Brooklyn Nets. While the team has not officially announced its starting lineup, a video from a recent scrimmage may have provided a clue.
During the scrimmage, which appeared to feature the first and second units, Coby White, Grayson Allen, Brandon Miller, Naz Reid, and Moussa Diabate were matched up against Dennis Schroder, Sion James, Liam McNeeley, Royce O'Neale, and Ryan Kalkbrenner. This alignment likely offered fans an early glimpse of the team's unofficial depth chart.
With Kon Knueppel sidelined for the preseason, the scrimmage suggests that the starting five for Tuesday's opener will consist of Coby White, Grayson Allen, Brandon Miller, Naz Reid, and Moussa Diabate.
