Michael Jordan has one last shot to get things right before relinquishing control of the Charlotte Hornets.
, the sting of disappointment landed across the collective franchise faithful. The Hornets along with the rest of the NBA's lottery dwellers not named the San Antonio Spurs missed out on the chance to draft generational talent Victor Wembanyama.
But the mere fact that the Hornets secured the second pick raised immediate questions. All of a sudden, Henderson wasn't the sure thing at No. 2 that he was moments before. The Hornets already have a ball-dominant star in the backcourt in LaMelo Ball. Can he coexist in the same backcourt as Henderson, an explosive athlete with All-NBA upside as a scorer and distributor?
The upside here for the Hornets is having the best backcourt in basketball. We all know what Ball brings to the table. When healthy, he's already established him as an All-Star — a 6-7 point guard with exceptional playmaking talent, basketball IQ and a scoring ability that's exceeded his pre-draft hype.
The Hornets haven't been relevant since their 1990s heyday featuring Larry Johnson and Alonzo Mourning — and that was technically a different franchise. Since the NBA returned to Charlotte as the Bobcats and eventually, again, the Hornets, the team has produced a who's who of draft busts featuring Adam Morrison , Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Frank Kaminsky .
