Charlotte Hornets Offseason Moves

[HardcoreHokie]

Most of us Hornets fans are in heaven right now, but it’s never too early to look ahead to next year.

We have some serious draft capital and trade bait to throw around this offseason.

Starting this new thread to ask…who would you target to upgrade next year’s squad?

This new Front Office clearly has a plan and is good at evaluating talent.  In my dream scenario, we would put together a package for a dominant BIG on the same timeline as our BIG3.  Jalen Duren would be my #1 target (even over guys like Giannis).  Whether that’s remotely possible or not, I have no clue.

Who are some young players / trade scenarios we might pull off this offseason?

The Coby White trade seems to be paying off, as well as our last draft, let’s keep it going!  Buzz Buzz Bitchezz.

The squad is really in tune with each other and working super well. We’re the best in the league since Christmas.

I would be very cautious to make a ton of moves. If any, we need to be extremely careful and make sure it’s for a legit impact player two make a 4-man wrecking crew w/ Ball/Miller/Kon.

The move I’d make— Bam. If you can manage that with picks and Bridges, could be an interesting move. 

But absolutely preserve Lamelo/White, Kon, Miller, and Diabate/Kalk at minimum.

Definitely down with that.  Bam is another guy that fits the criteria I think.

Playing Moose at the 4, with Bam or Duren at the 5 just seems nasty to me.  But Bam is a better shooter, so I would for sure go along with that.

And yes, we don’t have to make too drastic moves.  Keep drafting well and we will be OKC of the East really soon.
