Charlotte rookie Hannes Steinbach has made an immediate impact with the Greensboro Swarm after receiving limited playing time in his first five NBA appearances. In his first two G League games, he scored 29 points with 16 rebounds and then 27 points with 21 rebounds, setting franchise marks and becoming the first player in league history to reach at least 55 points and 35 rebounds across his first two games. He followed with another 20-point, 19-rebound performance, and is averaging 25.3 points and 18.6 rebounds through three games. His strong play has intensified questions about why the injury-hit Hornets are keeping the 14th overall pick in the G League rather than giving him meaningful NBA minutes, though the assignment offers a chance to build confidence and gain experience.

Miami is a 2.5-point home favorite against Cleveland, with James Harden highlighted as a promising player-prop option. One preview nevertheless leans toward the Cavaliers as underdogs, citing Cleveland’s recent win and possible absences for Miami’s Klay Thompson and Pelle Larsson; Cleveland has ruled out Sam Merrill and Evan Mobley.
