15. Charlotte Hornets (via NOP) – Mark Williams, C, Duke

After passing on a center just a few picks ago, this is a place where the Charlotte Hornets could really think about taking Mark Williams or Walker Kessler. Or, they could even decide to move a few spots down and still snag him.

The Hornets need to solidify the team’s frontcourt with LaMelo Ball blossoming as the league’s next possible superstar. The future is bright for the Hornets, but there are some spots where they need to tinker. The center position is one of them.

Either way, no matter where they elect to draft one, it seems like a center is something that Hornets have to emerge from his NBA Draft with.
