Tons of fans are frustrated that LaMelo is not starting, which is understandable, but wrong. LaMelo is a 19.5 year old who is already crushing it in multiple fascists of the game and is the clear front runner for rookie of the year. The Hornets are building something for sure, but we aren’t at a point where we need to start a rookie whose thighs are still the size of most players forearms. I get antsy for LaMelo to get into the game too, because he is electric to watch. Then I take a second and realize it’s probably best for him and his development to stay this course. As long as this course means him starting before the end of the season.
