Reports of interest in Miles Bridges and PJ Washington from other teams have Doug and Walker questioning just how committed Charlotte will be in retaining one or both in restricted free agency. They then talk to draft analyst Raphael Barlow of the Locked On NBA Big Board podcast about the Hornets’ draft picks. Raphael believes the Hornets made the right choice drafting Brandon Miller second overall due to his size, versatility, and shooting ability. Raphael also likes the Hornets picking up Nick Smith Jr. late in the first round, saying he is a creative scorer who fell due to injury issues. Overall, Raphael gives the Hornets’ draft an A+ grade, saying they addressed needs and got value with picks like James Nnaji and Amari Bailey.
The Hornets drafted Brandon Miller second overall to add size, versatility, and shooting to their lineup. They also got value later in the draft by selecting players like Nick Smith Jr., James Nnaju, and Amari Bailey, who Raphael believes had first round grades.
