According to Keith Langlois of Pistons.com, “Luke Kennard says workouts scheduled with ORL (No. 6), NYK (8), DAL (9), CHA (11) all ahead of #Pistons (12).” This means that the Charlotte Hornets will meet with the Duke product before the NBA Draft on June 22nd. He has been linked to the team in multiple mocks but this is the first news connecting the two sides.
DraftExpress.com actually projects Charlotte to select Luke with the 11th overall pick in their latest mock. Despite being projected so high, Kennard is only the 16th overall prospect in this year’s draft class.
