NBA Mock Draft 6.0: Spurs jump into top 3; Lakers offload Russell Westbrook

14. Charlotte Hornets – Mark Williams, C, Duke

As one of the most exciting teams in the league,  the Charlotte Hornets continued to make strides this season. Even though the year didn’t end with them in the postseason, I don’t think this year could be categorized as a disappointment.

Adding to the frontcourt this offseason will be a necessity for the Hornets and one way that they can do that is via the draft. One option late in the lottery is Mark Williams out of Duke. Looking at his stat sheet, his numbers aren’t eye-catching but he was impactful when he was on the floor.

If the Hornets are serious about adding an impactful frontcourt prospect, Williams might be their best option.
