When the Charlotte Hornets traded their first round pick to the Sacramento Kings for Marco Belinelli, many questioned the move. Sure it was a late-first round pick but it was still a first round pick. Most don’t know what to expect from Belinelli, but he may be key for the team this season.
Marco has been known as a knockdown three-point shooting threat but his defense has always been lacking throughout his career. The NBA has developed into a league where you must be able to shoot from deep to succeed. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is expected to be the starting small forward for Charlotte this season even though he has been a liability from the outside.
