In comparison, below shows how other recent number one picks have fared in their first game in the NBA.

Familiar Face Finds Fit Off the Court With the Hornets games now being broadcasted by Fox Sports New Orleans, former Hornet David Wesley returns to the franchise as the color commentator for FSNO. Wesley played for the Hornets from 1997-2005, and was part of the first starting lineup in New Orleans Hornets history when the team relocated in 2002. The San Antonio native ranks near the top in a number of Hornets franchise categories:

Minutes Played – 2nd (18,691)

Three-Point Field Goals Made – 2nd (644)

Steals – 3rd (766)

Points – 4th (8,690)

Assists – 4th (2,446)

Games Played – 4th (522)

Field Goals Made – 4th (2,813)

Free Throws Made – 5th (1,400) The Hornets Reach Adulthood The 2012-13 season marks the 25th anniversary of the Hornets franchise. The Hornets began play during the 1988-89 season in Charlotte, North Carolina, one of four expansion franchises granted that season. After fourteen seasons in Charlotte, the Hornets relocated to New Orleans prior to the 2002-2003 season. The franchise had just started unpacking in their new home when Hurricane Katrina forced the Hornets to temporarily relocate to Oklahoma City in 2005 for the next two seasons. The Bees would return to the “Big Easy” for the 2007-08 season and recorded a franchise-best 56 wins en route to the franchise’s first-ever division title.

In the 25 year history of the franchise, the Hornets have compiled a 934-986 (.486) record. The franchise has made 12 playoff appearances and compiled a 35-49 (.417) record in the NBA playoffs.

The Hornets first playoff appearance came in 1993 under head coach Allan Bristow. The Hornets finished 44-38 during the 1992-93 season and advanced to the second round of the playoffs, falling in 5 games to the New York Knicks. That team featured NBA All-Stars Larry Johnson and Alonzo Mourning as well as the franchise’s all-time leader in assists, Tyrone “Muggsy” Bogues.

Regarded as the best season in franchise history, the Hornets returned to New Orleans for the 2007-08 season and recorded a franchise-best 56 wins, won the first-ever division title for the franchise and came one win shy of reaching the Western Conference Finals.

The Hornets have been awarded two number one picks in the NBA Draft during their tenure in the NBA. The first was Larry Johnson in 1991, who won the NBA Rookie of the Year award for the 1991-92 season, went on to become a two-time NBA All-Star and ranks in the top five in nine different statistical categories in Hornets franchise history. The second was current Hornet Anthony Davis.

2012 PRESEASON GAME NOTES: Making it Easy: Greivis Vasquez finished the preseason third in the league in assists per game (7.4), behind only All-Stars Chris Paul and Rajon Rondo. Vasquez finished the preseason with consecutive double-double performances against the Miami Heat (18 points/10 assists) and Houston Rockets (13 points/11 assists). Going to work at the Hive: After pouring in 23 points, eight rebounds and two assists in the home loss to the Rockets on 10/24, forward Ryan Anderson is averaged 18.0 points per game at the New Orleans Arena during the preseason. In two contests, he shot 10-13 from beyond the 3-Point Arc (.769). Double Trouble: Three different Hornets recorded double-doubles against the Heat 10/26 after only two players had recorded double-doubles in the seven games prior this preseason.

Vasquez recorded his second consecutive double-double performance with 18 points and 10 assists, but Anthony Davis and Al-Farouq Aminu also joined the ranks of Hornets players with double-doubles. Davis led the team with 24 points and 11 rebounds against the Heat, while Aminu chipped in 13 points and 10 rebounds from the bench.

In a loss to the Rockets on 10/24 at home, Point Guard Greivis Vasquez recorded 13 points and 11 assists.

In the loss on 10/22 Hornets starting center Robin Lopez recorded his second double-double of the preseason with 14 points (7-12 FG) and 11 rebounds. Seven of his rebounds came on the offensive glass while helping lead the Hornets to 17 second chance points.

Lopez’s first double-double came in his first game in New Orleans Arena on 10/9 against the Charlotte Bobcats with an 18 point, 13 rebound performance in the Hornets 97-82 victory.

Cleaning the Glass: The Hornets dominated the rebounding margin this preseason. The Hornets have yet to be outrebounded by their competition, for a total rebound tally of 449-408. As a result the Hornets have a +41 margin overall and outrebound their opponents by an average of 5.9 rebounds per game. Additionally, the Hornets allow the fewest offensive rebounds per game in the league (8.5 rebounds).

Two different Hornets finished in the top 20 in the league in rebounds per game for the preseason.

Anthony Davis finished third in the league with an average of 9.9 rebounds per game, which nearly left him with averaging a double-double in the preseason (14.9 ppg.)

Hornets center Robin Lopez ranked 20th in the NBA, with an average of 7.5 rebounds per game in the preseason.

Bench Scoring: In four different preseason games, the Hornets received multiple double figure scoring performances from off the bench:

10/7 vs. ORL: Roberts 17 pts, Thomas 10 pts

10/11 at CHA: Anderson 14, Mason Jr. 11, Thomas 14

10/22 at DAL: Aminu 10, Anderson 14

10/26 at MIA: Aminu 13, Anderson 17 Rookie Charge: Hornets rookies Anthony Davis, Brian Roberts, Darius Miller and Austin Rivers ranked among the league leaders in several categories for rookies through the NBA Preseason.

Anthony Davis: 3th in points per game (14.9), 1st in rebounds per game (9.9), 3rd in blocks per game (1.57), and 1st in minutes per game (32.4).

Brian Roberts: 14th in points per game (9.1), 6th in assists per game (3.8), 9th in 3-PT Field Goal Pct. (.375, 9-24)

Darius Miller: 1st in 3-PT Field Goal Pct. (.714, 10-14) and 4th in Field Goal Pct. (.593, 16-27)

Austin Rivers: 4th in minutes per game (27.0) and 6th in steals per game (1.14). Swarming Hornets: The Hornets defense has been stifling through eight preseason games. They allow the 3rd fewest points per game in the NBA (89.3 points) and hold opponents to the just 41.3 percent from the field, fifth best in the league. The Hornets have been defending the three point line extremely well also, allowing opponents to shoot the 7th lowest 3-Point Field Goal Pct. in the league (.313 3PT FG). South of the Border: The Hornets first preseason game versus the Orlando Magic in the new Mexico City Arena in Mexico was one of 7 NBA Preseason games played internationally. The Hornets have now played a total of 5 games on international soil. They have won three straight (2 wins over WAS on 10/14 and 10/17 in 2008) and are 4-1 overall.
