One of the most durable rookies in the 2025-26 class, the Charlotte guard has suited up for every game this season and is on pace to play in all 82. Sion James saved his most audacious shot for the perfect moment. With the first quarter clock winding down and Charlotte holding a four-point edge over Detroit, the rookie caught the ball beyond midcourt and launched a prayer from 48 feet away. The halfcourt prayer found nothing but net as time expired, sending Spectrum Center into a frenzy. The kind of shot you draw up in your driveway, not one you expect to see on an NBA floor. · Feb 10, 2026
