After spending last week with the United States select team, Miller made his first appearance of this summer on Saturday afternoon. He shot the ball well, and while the seven turnovers weren't great, that isn't something the Hornets will be too concerned about. Miller flourished as his rookie campaign progressed, but that was with LaMelo Ball and Mark Williams sidelined due to injury. With those two and Miles Bridges on the floor with him, Miller is still a player with top-75 fantasy potential.
Smith Jr. was able to contribute a little bit in every category in this game, but the shooting woes continued. He is now 8-of-33 from the floor through two games this summer, which isn't ideal for a player heading into his second season. Smith Jr. was once a five-star prospect, but he slipped in the draft after a disappointing season at Arkansas. He didn't have a great rookie season, even with LaMelo Ball injured. If he doesn't turn things around this summer, it will be difficult to be optimistic about him heading into this season.
New Hornets head coach Charles Lee had to be pleased with what he saw from the "Summer Hornets" on Saturday. However, Smith's shooting struggles were one of the lone negatives. While fellow rookie Brandon Miller improved throughout last season, Smith could not crack the rotation, averaging 14.3 minutes per game in 51 appearances. With starting point guard LaMelo Ball due to return from injury and the Hornets adding Josh Green via trade, this is a big summer for Smith regarding his ability to earn rotation minutes in training camp potentially.

Charlotte held on to Bridges when off-court issues kept him away for a while and has secured him for three more seasons. He led Charlotte with a career-high 21.0 points per game last season and can put together an even better fantasy season next year should he be available from the start with LaMelo Ball setting the table for him.
