The Charlotte Hornets are leaning toward keeping the pivotal No. 2 pick in Thursday night's NBA draft.
General manager Mitch Kupchak said Wednesday the Hornets are considering two players, adding that he believes there's a “significant separation” in talent among the top three players in the draft.
It’s almost a foregone conclusion the San Antonio Spurs will take France’s Victor Wembanyama, who is considered a generational player, No. 1 overall. The Hornets are expected to choose between Alabama wing Brandon Miller and guard Scoot Henderson from the NBA G League Ignite.
