#28 Charlotte Hornets
The Charlotte Hornets have more young prospects than Houston, but it’s not much better here. The missing star from this trade that comes to mind from the Hornets is all-star guard Kemba Walker, but he’s a free agent this summer and would have to agree to some sort of sign-and-trade to be included, meaning he’d have to agree to a new contract knowing he’d immediately be sent to New Orleans.
Still, Malik Monk and Miles Bridges are both extremely raw and young. There’s a chance they could turn into solid players. But this deal is not a slam dunk by any means. The draft picks would likely be towards the middle of the first round.
