Michael Kidd-Gilchrist has been a staple for the Charlotte Hornets over the last six seasons. Yet, the forward out of Kentucky hasn’t reached the potential a number two overall pick typically attains. Could it be time to trade him?
The 2012 draft still stings Charlotte Hornets fans to this day. The then Charlotte Bobcats had by far the worst record in the league that year (7-59 due to a shortened season) and fans seemed well assured that the number one pick would be theirs. Alas, we all know how that turned out. Still, at the time, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist seemed like a nice consolation prize at the number two pick.
