Hornets Fans Receive Kai Jones Update
In this story:
Many Hornets fans, along with the NBA community, have been perplexed by Kai Jones' recent social media antics. It has left a lot of questions and concerns if Jones would attend training camp with all this swirling around. Steve Reed of the Associated Press provided an update.
With Clifford not commenting on the situation, it certainly adds more speculation as to what is actually going on with the Hornets center. However, it is logical to not give too much information to the media, especially when the Hornets might not know everything or all the details.
The most surprising factor of this update was that Jones has not attended the voluntary team workouts. Jones has always been one of the hardest workers in the gym since being drafted in the first round by the Hornets in 2020. It's unclear the reason why Jones has skipped out on those workouts, but it could potentially be the cause of his actions across social media.
Jones has posted some very questionable content across his social media over the course of the last month. Below are just a few things Jones has posted that raised concern and worry amongst Hornets fans and the NBA community.
It's hard to truly gauge this situation, but Jones certainly has something going on. Jones is not followed by any of his teammates anymore and seems to have alienated them. It's never an encouraging look when you're looking to crack the rotation and criticize your teammates on social media.
The question remains, what does Kai Jones' future in Charlotte look like? Will Jones be at training camp?
Training camp begins for the Hornets next Tuesday (Oct. 3).
