The 2029 Hornet draft picks:


PF
PJ Washington
FOLLOW
6'8"230 lbsKentucky
5POS RK
16OVR RK

NBA draft profile: PJ Washington
PJ Washington averaged 15.2 points and 7.5 rebounds per game as a sophomore at Kentucky.

Pre-Draft Analysis
Strengths
- Not particularly tall at 6-8 in shoes, but has a chiseled frame, big hands, a 7-3 wingspan and an 8-11 standing reach that should allow him to see minutes as a small-ball center. Fairly quick off his feet and has solid explosiveness off two feet.

- Developed into a versatile offensive player in his sophomore season, converting 42% of his 3-point attempts and 55% of his 2s. Was utilized in a variety of ways at Kentucky -- both facing and with his back to the basket, playing as a pick-and-roll finisher and moving off the ball in open spaces. Creative finisher with good hands and touch.

- Can make an impact as a defender and rebounder thanks to his length and improved conditioning and activity level. Showed a lot of toughness by playing through injury in the NCAA tournament. Ticks quite a few boxes on both ends of the floor. Has a high floor.



SF
Cody Martin
FOLLOW
6'6"192 lbsNevada
15POS RK
66OVR RK

Pre-Draft Analysis
At the combine, Martin stood out by defending with toughness at 6-foot-6 with a 6-foot-10 wingspan, operating as a lead ball handler given his excellent vision and feel and finishing above the rim in space. He didn't make a 3 and remains limited in that area, but should a team feel comfortable it can work with his mechanics, he could most certainly carve out a role in the NBA.

Post-Draft Analysis
Charlotte took a flier on long-armed, 6-foot-6 wing Cody Martin, a versatile player who saw quite a few minutes at point guard for Nevada and impressed with his defense and toughness.

 

I tried watching the draft, but I fell asleep. Boring as fuck.


Are they any good?

 

I`ve nary a clue on either one.
yeah, I said nary. heheh

 

Sounds like roster filler.

 

Evidently the Hornets saw this picture and knew Washington was special.
He doesn`t even need the ground to walk on.

 

PF
Jalen McDaniels

6'10"192 lbsSan Diego State



NBA draft profile: Jalen McDaniels
Jalen McDaniels averaged 15.9 points and 8.3 rebounds per game as a sophomore at San Diego State.

Pre-Draft Analysis
McDaniels was inconsistent from the perimeter in his two years in college, though his defensive versatility, ability to create offense at 6-10 and overall upside are intriguing long term.

Post-Draft Analysis
Jalen McDaniels' size, ballhandling and defensive versatility are interesting enough to warrant a pick at this stage of the draft, even if his slender frame will have to improve to earn a roster spot eventually. -- Jonathan Givony

 

No need to watch this season as the Raptors will win again. The beginning of a dynasty.
