Charlotte Hornets: Is PJ Washington worthy of an NBA All-Rookie team?

Ever since the start of the season, PJ Washington has been something special for the Charlotte Hornets. With his play so far, Washington could be considered one of the Hornets’ best rookies as of late.

Washington had many doubters over the offseason after he missed Summer League because of a healing ankle injury from college. However, he shocked many with his impressive play during the preseason.

During the preseason, Washington played so well that he earned himself a starting job for the Hornets. In his first career game, Washington finished with 27 points, and seven made three-pointers.
