C. Duke. player. 170. 8. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Vernon Carey

The Charlotte Hornets must be looking for a big man now that they have a young backcourt consisting of Terry Rozier and DeVonte Graham.

Graham has been one of the more surprising breakout players this season, averaging 17.7 points and ranking fifth in 3-point field goals. Meanwhile, Rozier is set to make over $30 million dollars across the next two seasons. It’s safe to say this duo isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

As a result, it only makes sense for the Hornets to take a player like Vernon Carey. The Duke center is putting up 17.6 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game. He would help buff the Hornets interior defense and act as a solid post-up scorer.
