CHARLOTTE — More than a dozen students from Charlotte Lab School teamed up with players from the Charlotte Hornets to celebrate basketball and Black culture.
Their design project is called Heart of the Hoop.
The goal was to illustrate what Black culture means to them by designing custom basketball hoops.
So this was cool…
