Why The Charlotte Hornets Do The Deal
Well, if it’s a sharpshooter the Hornets want, they don’t need to target Miller.
In all likelihood, they’d be making this deal with Gradey Dick in mind. He may not have Miller’s defensive potential, and he’s not quite on his level as a shot-creator.
Still, Dick is a quality prospect who can pass, play a little defense, and shoot the lights out.
Yet, he’s a downgrade from Miller. That’s OK. That’s exactly why the Hornets are getting two extra first-round picks in this exchange.
In this particular draft, they’ll find a quality player with the 16th pick.

Meanwhile, with so much uncertainty surrounding the Timberwolves, having their unprotected 2024 pick is very beneficial as well.
Should the Jazz give that pick up?
