2017 NBA Mock Draft 4.0: Los Angeles Lakers pass on Lonzo Ball; Josh Jackson rises
By Tony Webb
No. 11 Charlotte Hornets- Lauri Markkanen (Arizona, FR, Power Forward)
Lauri Markkanen could be taken before 11, but if he does fall here he would be too tempting to pass up.
The crafty 7-footer with a developed jumper would be too valuable to pass on for Hornets. He has shown the potential of great shot creating ability for his size and can spread the floor nicely.
Charlotte could use another scorer especially one of his size. He needs to work on his rebounding and his defense, but he would be a welcomed addition to come off the bench and potentially move into the starting lineup for the Hornets.
