Charlotte Hornets big man Moussa Diabaté has been named the winner of the NBA Hustle Award for the 2025–26 season.
The award is given to the player who consistently makes effort plays that often don’t show up in the box score but contribute significantly to team success.
Below is a breakdown of Diabaté’s impact across all hustle-related statistical categories.
Diabaté played a key role in the Hornets’ strong regular season, taking advantage of Ryan Kalkbrenner’s injury to step in as the starting center.
The lineup featuring Diabaté alongside LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, Miles Bridges, and Kneuppel posted an outstanding +26.4 net rating in over 500 minutes together.
Diabaté wrapped up his fourth NBA season averaging 7.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.0 block in 26 minutes per game.
