Charles Lee Appointed as Charlotte Hornets' New Head Coach

Lee's hiring marks a strategic move by the Hornets, aiming to revitalize the team and end their playoff drought.

Charles Lee, former Boston Celtics assistant, takes over as the Charlotte Hornets head coach, following Steve Clifford's departure.
Lee's appointment is seen as a safe yet promising choice, given his successful track record and deep connections within the NBA.
Key challenges for Lee include developing young talents like LaMelo Ball and enhancing the team's defensive strategies.
Lee plans to overhaul the coaching staff and align the performance team to better support player development and injury management.
The Hornets, having struggled with one of the worst defensive records last season, look to Lee to make significant improvements.
