Charlotte Hornets rookie sharpshooter Kon Knueppel is expected to make his season debut when the team faces the Brooklyn Nets, according to a report from Rookie Wire. The highly touted prospect has been sidelined to start the campaign but appears ready to join the rotation for the matchup against Brooklyn.
Knueppel, known for his shooting ability, was selected by the Hornets in the 2026 NBA Draft. His addition could provide a scoring boost for a Charlotte squad looking to improve its offensive output. The game against the Nets will mark his first appearance in an NBA regular-season contest.
