CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball was not injured after being involved in a two-car crash in downtown Charlotte on Wednesday, according to a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the details of the crash. A police report was not immediately made available.
With a nickname like the Queen City, it's no surprise that Charlotte (named for Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz) is a powerhouse among the Southeast's cities, on par with Atlanta. It's the most populous city in North Carolina, and its location at the state line draws day trippers and weekenders from South Carolina, too. A prosperous banking and finance industry drove the city's modern evolution into this shiny cosmopolitan center, and you'll find many of the world's leading hotel brands here.
