Charlotte Hornets
At .500, the Charlotte Hornets are hanging around in the top 8 of the Eastern Conference. However, the more you look at the standings the more you begin to realize that it’s going to be difficult for them to keep a stranglehold on one of the top 8 spots.
Without adding another piece to the puzzle. That’s where Jabari Parker can come into play. This team has needed a second reliable scoring option to Kemba Walker, and Parker could be that player.
He will almost definitely struggle on the defensive end, but will give this team some added explosion to the offensive side of the ball. The team could off-end his limitations on defense with using him in smart lineups and in certain spots.
