The Charlotte Hornets are loaded with UNC connections. Chairman Michael Jordan, General Manager Mitch Kupchak, and Assistant General Manager Buzz Peterson all attended school and played basketball at Chapel Hill. The team spending two lottery picks on UNC teammates Raymond Felton and Sean May back in 2005 has stuck in the team’s reputation for 14 years. Combine those two, and you get a lot of people assuming Nassir Little is a lock for the Hornets’ first selection.
