Under no normal circumstances should any team want to trade their lone All-Star. However, if the Charlotte Hornets hope to be anything other than a borderline playoff team in the next five to seven years, then they must seriously consider trading Kemba Walker.
The Hornets are in one of the toughest situations in the NBA, thanks in part to the spending spree over the course of the 2015-16 and 2016-17 seasons. Charlotte re-signed Michael Kidd-Gilchrist to a four-year, $52 million extension, Nicolas Batum to a five-year, $120 million extension, Marvin Williams to a four-year, $54.
