Charlotte Hornets Win 7 Straight: Is Kon Knueppel The Rookie Of The Year? + Robert Kraft Snubbed From 2026 Hall of Fame Class

Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss who the Rookie of the Year in the NBA should be and Robert Kraft not making the Hall of Fame.

Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel and some other rookies have been balling. The Charlotte Hornets have been playing strong basketball lately as the team has gone on a seven-game winning streak, marking their longest win streak in about a decade. This surge has turned a record of around 23-28 into a legitimate push toward the play-in picture in the Eastern Conference. Analysts are calling the Hornets one of the NBA’s hottest teams, thanks to contributions from young stars like LaMelo Ball, Kon Knueppel, and Brandon Miller. Who is the Rookie of the Year: Kon Knueppel, Cooper Flagg or someone else?

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft was not selected for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2026, according to multiple reports. Kraft, a first-time finalist in the contributor category, did not receive enough votes from the 50-member selection committee to make this year’s class, which will be officially announced later this week at the NFL Honors ceremony. Should Kraft and Belichick have made it?
