Jeremy Lamb: Records double-double in preseason game

Lamb provided his biggest impact last season as a three-point shooter off the bench, but he delivered a surprisingly well-rounded stat line in Thursday’s contest. The 24-year-old is again in line to come off the bench in 2016-17, likely serving as the Hornets’ first or second wing off the bench. However, with starters Nicolas Batum and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist locked into sizable roles, Lamb could struggle to see much more than the 18.6 minutes per game he averaged a season ago.
