A lot of Charlotte Hornets fans were distraught when the team selected Cody Martin 36th overall in the 2019 NBA Draft. Players like Daniel Gafford and Bol Bol were still on the board, and many people believed the Hornets should’ve filled their need for a backup center with that pick.
There was also a group of Hornets fans who thought the team was going in a complete 180 selecting Martin this high. They believed that the organization should’ve been drafting based off potential, as opposed to one who isn’t elite at one thing but’s capable of doing a lot.
