Charlotte Hornets: The Value of Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

Since being drafted 2nd overall by the Charlotte Hornets in 2012, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist has been a talented, athletic wing player with a ton of potential. Four seasons later, MKG has been labeled a draft bust by many fans and people questioned the front office giving him a four-year, $52 million dollar extension that starts this coming season. The reason is because he hasn’t been healthy for the last three seasons. However, there is a slight silver lining to when he’s on the floor. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is actually really valuable to the current Charlotte Hornets team.
