NBA Draft rumors: Knicks on Paul George, LeBron frustrated with Davis, Miller messed up with Jordan
With just hours to go until the first pick is announced, the NBA Draft rumors just won’t stop. Here’s the latest on LeBron, Paul George and Brandon Miller.
NBA Draft rumors: Brandon Miller messed up with Michael Jordan
According to Shams Charania, Scoot Henderson is gaining “serious momentum” as the number overall two pick. For the last couple of weeks, it seemed like the Hornets were going to end up selecting Brandon Miller instead of Henderson. That has changed in recent hours and the league will certainly feel the aftereffects.
There are a lot of things that will be impacted if the Hornets do not end up picking Miller. The Trail Blazers will end up having a slightly less valuable pick due to the fact that Henderson is viewed as more valuable around the league and this could change how they handle things.
Michael Jordan has completed a deal to sell his majority stake in the Hornets but according to GM Mitch Kupchak, he’ll still have the final say on who they take at No. 2. It’s not clear why, but Jordan must have soured on Miller.
