Nets explore trade for Hornets star LaMelo Ball as roster reshaping continues
The Brooklyn Nets are considering a trade for Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball as they look to reshape their roster. The Nets, currently 9-10 and on a three-game win streak, are not fully rebuilding but are exploring options to improve. LaMelo Ball is having a strong season, averaging 31.1 points and 6.9 assists per game. However, the Hornets are struggling, sitting at No. 12 in the Eastern Conference and dealing with multiple injuries. If the Nets acquire Ball, it could provide them with a franchise player to lead the team. This move would also benefit Ball, who may be seeking a more competitive environment than what Charlotte currently offers.
