2023 NBA Draft Rumors: Brandon Miller Seen as Hornets' Pick over Henderson by Teams

The Charlotte Hornets are reportedly zeroing in on Brandon Miller with the No. 2 pick.

Jeremy Woo of ESPN reported the Hornets taking Miller over Scoot Henderson remains the "prevailing thought" around the NBA with two days remaining before the draft.

Miller, a switchable score-first wing who has drawn comparisons to Paul George, is seen as a more natural basketball fit than Henderson, who would have to share lead ball-handling responsibilities with LaMelo Ball.

Both Henderson and Miller are set to be in Charlotte this week for a second meeting with Hornets brass before Thursday's draft.
