EDGE Analysis

Mann was one of eight Hornets to score in double figures during their blowout win over the Nets, and he also finished third on the team in assists behind LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller.

Hip soreness became an issue for Mann during the preseason, though he's all set for action against the Nets.

Mann (hip) is considered day-to-day, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
