The Charlotte Hornets have a new reason to celebrate this season, as forward Moussa Diabaté was named the NBA’s Hustle Award winner, a recognition that highlights his impact beyond traditional scoring numbers. Diabaté’s production reflects his energy-driven role. During the 2025–26 season, he averaged 5.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 0.9 assists per game while shooting 57.2% from the field in roughly 18.3 minutes per contest.
